Power Lines Lyrics

My friend had a haunted house

And he said that he would talk to ghosts

As they wandered from the creek through the yard

He said they knew his name

And they'd listen to the songs he sang

And they'd sing along in harmony

They bought and sold the west

And they'll buy and pave

All of the rest of the the pieces

Here that all are left

Til' there's nothing left

But a shadow of a shell

I don't wanna die somewhere out on the west coast

Under billboard signs

I don't wanna die somewhere out on the east coast

Under power lines

Send my body back home to Tennessee

Send my body back home to Tennessee

When I'm standing next to you

I feel you shaking in your shoes

There must be ghosts around

In the sinkholes underground

When I'm standing next to you

I feel you shaking in your shoes

There must be ghosts around

In the sinkholes underground

I don't wanna die somewhere out on the west coast

Under billboard signs

I don't wanna die somewhere out on the east coast

Under power lines

Send my body back home to Tennessee
