You measure yourself

Through the eyes of the ones you love

Sometimes you've got to look back

So looking forward is a little clearer

Been a long run riding shotgun with the devil

Why am I still out here on the road?

I'm looking for a wiseman, with a good book in his hand

Said there's only one way he'll lead you home

Stop chasing ghosts (stop chasing ghosts)

Listen to your soul (listen to your soul)

Watch your needs at home

Stop chasing ghosts

I've been searching for a something my whole damn life

And everything that we've done, something still ain't right

The last summer I found myself in a field of stone (field of stone)

Down in North Mississippi, yeah, that's hollow ground

I found his name as the wind died down

And echoes from my past chilled my bone (chilled my bone)

And I swear I heard a whisper of a proud voice from beyond

Saying, "Son, your work here isn't done"

Been a long run riding shotgun with the devil

Why am I still out here on the road?

I'm looking for a wiseman, with a good book in his hand

Said there's only one way he'll lead you home

Stop chasing ghosts (stop chasing ghosts)

Listen to your soul (listen to your soul)

Watch your needs at home

Stop chasing ghosts

I might've got lost livin', I truly should've asked

If the route that I chose, I would miss a few paths

And the value of time with family would pass

There ain't no way to grasp what's gone in the past

Chasin' these ghosts a million miles from home

With a box full of photos in a bus bunk alone

Every bar, kept roamin', always stayin' on the go

I was even out of touch with you on the phone

Hard to stay so grounded when you stay so high

I bet I'd come right down if you said goodbye

Rather die with my memories and not with a dream

That I've been chasing so long, and it ain't what it seems

Been a long run riding shotgun with the devil

Why am I still out here on the road?

I'm lookin' for a wiseman, with a good book in his hand

Said there's only one way he'll lead you home

Stop chasing ghosts (stop chasing ghosts)

Listen to your soul (listen to your soul)

Watch your needs at home

Stop chasing ghosts

So high (so high), so low (so low)

Why am I on the road?

So high (so high), so low (so low)

Why am I chasing ghosts?

So high (so high), so low (so low)

Why am I on the road? (Yeah)

So high (so high), so low (so low)

Why am I chasing ghosts?
