Words and Music by Rex Strother

Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, Backing Vocal, Hand Claps : Scott Von
Mixing Engineer : Scott Von

LYRIC:
Down below the hum
Deep beneath the noise
I hear the ancient music
I hear the ghosts of boys

Lingering in the circuits
The sorrow and the joy
The residue of history
The clinging ghosts of boys

When we were young, we were frantic
Oh, so juvenile
But now the signal's so damn quiet
I don't dare touch the dial

When the tubes are warm
When the dials are low
The frequencies are perfect
Again, I hear the ghosts

When I hear that sound
My own heart starts to glow
Bless that faint transmission
That wavelength full of ghosts

When we were young, those same three chords
Always made us smile
But now the signal's so damn quiet
I don't dare touch the dial

But now the signal's fading
And I don't dare touch the dial

Pretty darn good
Really listenable & nostalgic in many respects.
