[Verse 1] You left your blue jeans on the back of that chair Coffee cup ring on the counter still there Dog by the door keeps waitin’ on you Guess he don’t know what a goodbye can do [Chorus] Backroads and barstools That’s where I’ve been Chasin’ your ghost in a jukebox spin Same old small town Same two-lane view But it don’t feel like home since it lost you Yeah I’m stuck between the church bell and the pool hall smoke Backroads and barstools Hangin’ on to hope [Verse 2] Buddy at the station says I’m lookin’ worn thin Says “Man You need a fresh start Not another drink again” But that open sign’s glowin’ like a welcome light And I keep findin’ your laugh in a Friday night [Chorus] Backroads and barstools That’s where I’ve been Chasin’ your ghost in a jukebox spin Same old small town Same two-lane view But it don’t feel like home since it lost you Yeah I’m stuck between the church bell and the pool hall smoke Backroads and barstools Hangin’ on to hope [Bridge] Some folks pack up Head for brighter skies Me I mow the same yard Tell the same old lies Say I’m doin’ just fine Got my life on track But every neon door just leads me right back [Chorus] Backroads and barstools That’s where I’ve been Chasin’ your ghost in a jukebox spin Same old small town Same two-lane view But it don’t feel like home since it lost you Yeah I’m stuck between the church bell and the pool hall smoke Backroads and barstools Darlin’ you’re my hope
