[Intro] Am Em A5 Am Em A5 Am G Em C Csus2 [Verse]
Am             Em           A5
I remember the sound of the passing train

Am                       Em           A5
As it rolled through the night in the pouring rain

Am                   G            Em               C   Csus2
And the touch of her hand and the way she said goodbye
[Verse]
Am                   Em           A5
And we walked in the sun down the royal mile

Am                   Em          A5
Saw the light in her eye and the way she smiled

Am                   G           Em                  C   Csus2
And she cried in the night and I heard her say don't go
[Chorus]
           F        G         C                 C
What can I do sweet darlin' I don't want to go away

           F         G         C              C
Looking at you sweet darlin' I know I want to stay

           F        G
What can I do sweet darlin'
[Verse]
Am                  Em        A5
In the light of the day I was rolling home

Am                Em          A5
I was thinking of you waiting on your own

Am              G             Em                C   Csus2
And I wanted to call but then something said oh no
[Verse]
Am                  Em           A5
Yeah but now it's a dream it's a memory

Am                Em           A5
But I'll never forget what you gave to me

Am              G            Em          C   Csus2
I was lost and alone but you made feel O.K.
[Chorus]
           F        G         C                 C
What can I do sweet darlin' I don't want to go away

           F         G         C              C
Looking at you sweet darlin' I know I want to stay

           F        G
What can I do sweet darlin'
[Break] Am Em A5 Am Em A5 Am G Em C Csus2 [Verse]
Am             Em           A5
I remember the sound of the passing train

Am                       Em           A5
As it rolled through the night in the pouring rain

Am                 G            Em               C   Csus2
And the touch of a hand and the way she said goodbye
[Chorus]
           F        G         C                 C
What can I do sweet darlin' I don't want to go away

           F         G         C              C
Looking at you sweet darlin' I know I want to stay

           F        G
What can I do sweet darlin'
