When we climbed to the peak we planted a flag
C               F      C       G
But the moment we had, i felt bad
C                     F
And then night came, so we got into our sleeping bags
C                        G
And then someone told a story about something dead and gory
C
There was heat
Em (without hitting Low E)
From the fire
F                                G
But i still froze when i saw the ghost

[X2]
C                          Em
I told the gang we weren't welcome
F                   G
The ghost made that clear
C                   Em            F               G
So we stepped back, stepped back, but it was drawing near
C                     
And it lunged for our throats
F
So we packed our things, made tracks,
C                     G
Undid our footprints, even furled our flag, and..
C                                            Em
We were gone! but what was on the top of the mountain,
F            G
The mountain top?

[X2]
C              Em
Sweet nothing! I made it up
                    F                       G
So we would make it down with no claim on Ghost Mountain
