Billy Bragg – Waiting For A Train (Guitar)

               C7
All around the water tanks

F             C
[tab]  F               C
A thousand miles away from home

D7              G
Sleepin' in the rain

  C                      C7
I walked up to a brakeman

   F                  C
To give him a line of talk

   F                  C
He said if you've got money

     D7       D         G
I'll see that you don't walk

  C                   C7
I haven't got a nickel

      F           E    E7
Not a penny can I show

    F                 C        Am
Get off, get off, you railroad bum

       D7           G      C
And he slammed that boxcar door

                 C7
He put me off in Texas

  F              C
A state I dearly love

    F                     C
The wide open spaces all around me

        D7                  G7
And the moon and the stars above

C                      C7
Nobody seems to want me

   F                 C
Or lend me a helpin' hand

    F              C
I'm on my way from Frisco Bay

        Dm           G7
Headin' back to Dixieland

   C                  C7
My pocketbook is empty

       F                    E    E7
And my heart is filled with pain

      F               C        Am
I'm a thousand miles away from home

D7      G     C
Waiting for a train
