[Verse 1]
a [Am]railway [D]train to anywhere
Something [E]happened,[D]
The driver [E]said [Am]he s[D]aw no station
But we were [E]riding aim[D]lessly
The train was [E]filled with
[D]sleeping passengers
Going [E]nowhere [D]for the ride
Smoke and [E]whispers [D]filled the carriages
No one [E]cared to [D]look outside
Conversa[E]tions [D]aimed at anyone
Answering [E]questions [D]off the wall
Except [E]for two ex[D]cited children
Burning [E]caterpillars [D]in the hall
All at [E]once I got [D]quite frightened
Standing [E]up I [D]gave a shout
I see a [E]station [D]just in front of me
Stop this [Am]train and [D]let me [E]out[Am]
[G][D][E][G][D][E][G][D][Am][D]
The driver [E]smiled and [D]shook his head for me,
this train [E]don't stop for [D]anyone.
And if you [E]want to leave [D]this railway line,
you'll have to [E]jump off on your [D]own.
[E]Someone came and [D]gave me sandwiches,
saying [E]that I [D]looked unwell.
He took my [E]phone and he
[D]gave it back to me
And then he [E]hit me [D]with his [E]bell[D][Am]
[D][G][D][A][E][Am][E][D][E][Dm][D]
He made a [E]speech to [D]all [Dm]the passen[D]gers
He said I've [E]been a [D]place to stay
That anyone [E]who'd [D]care
to come with me
Step out[E]side and [D]walk this way
[E]Inside the seats were warm
[D]and comfortable
Outside the [E]train was wild an[D]d strange
I said, yes [E]sir, I'd [D]like to come with you
It's really [E]time I [D]made a change
I left my [E]seat and [D]walked up front with him
And he [E]began to [D]push the door
I looked out[E]side, but it's [D]nearly blinding me. I've never [E]seen such light be[D]fore.
