Trains Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[F][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]Everyone's got tired eyes
As the carriage sways its
way along the
suburban line.
The [F]weekend's never long enough for
us to catch up all of this lost [C]time.
No one likes these long rides home.
And the smell of trains
makes me feel alone.
[F]Stale winds blow the subways cold.
Stale winds make our faces
like [C]stone.[Dm]
[G]Trains, [Dm]carry [G]stone faces away
[Dm]Trains, [G]leaving nothing left to [Dm]trace
[G]This train takes me home [C]again
The man across the aisle from me
He's worked all day and
trying not to fall asleep
[F]Slowly his newspaper slips
from his hands onto his [C]feet
Mr
Jones is a clerk or something
Is he happy, wonder where his
thoughts are running
May[F]be he's a lot like us,
I hope he's glad the weekend is [C]coming[Dm]
Trains [G]carry stone faces [Dm]away
Leav[G]ing nothing left to [Dm]say
[G]This train takes me home [C]again
[E]Oh my heart,
oh my heart is in the [Am]wrong [Dm]place[Am]
[E]An d this train,
this train moves at such a [Am]rapid [B]pac[Am]e
[E]Oh my love,
she is waiting somewhere [Am]down the line
[E]And if this train's on time,

[Interlude 1]
I'll be seeing her soon
[Am][Dm][G][C]
[F][C]
[F][C]

[Verse 2]
[C]You give a [Dm]train
[G]Carries stone faces [Dm]away
[G]Leaving nothing left to [Dm]say[D]
[G]This train takes me home,
this little train it's taking me home
This train takes me home [C]again
Running away from wintertime
In this carriage day, dreaming out of line
An[F]d when this train pulls up,
I wake up to a blue [C]reservoir
All of our despondent lives
Travelling safely home to our
husbands and wives
[F]Everyone works overtime outside
The world goes rushing [C]by
[Dm]Why, [C]train?[Dm][G]
Carry stone faces the [Dm]train[G]
[Dm]Leaving noth[G]ing left to [Dm]stray
[G]This train takes me home
This little train, it's taking me home
This train takes me home [C]again[F]

Oh!
