Ghost in the Radio

[Intro – distorted guitar riff, soft snare roll] (Instrumental Solo) [Verse 1 – jangly rhythm guitar, steady bassline] I found your old jacket in the back of my car The coffee stain still matches the one at the bar I keep your playlist on a loop when I drive Half-expecting your laugh to cut through the night [Chorus – full band, soaring vocals, crashing cymbals] You’re the ghost in the radio, the hole in my soul I still reach for your hand when I walk home alone I messed up the first chance, let the silence win Can we hit rewind and try to start again? [Verse 2 – layered guitar, slightly faster drum pace] I passed the bookstore where we picked out our books The clerk still asks if you’re coming back soon I deleted your number but I know it by heart I still type your name when I’m falling apart [Chorus – intensified guitar, harmonized backing vocals] You’re the ghost in the radio, the hole in my soul I still reach for your hand when I walk home alone I messed up the first chance, let the silence win Can we hit rewind and try to start again? [Bridge – stripped-back acoustic guitar, vulnerable vocals] I know I said things I can’t take back I know I left you with a broken track But I’ve been practicing every line To tell you I’m sorry, to make you mine [Solo – screaming electric guitar, building distortion] (Instrumental Solo) [Chorus – full band climax, pounding drums, wailing guitar] You’re the ghost in the radio, the hole in my soul I still reach for your hand when I walk home alone I messed up the first chance, let the silence win Can we hit rewind and try to start again? [Outro – fading guitar, soft vocal hum] I’m still here waiting by the phone Hoping you’ll pick up when I call
