[Verse]
C G D G Station was empty, trains were all gone. C G D G Reached in my pocket, and waited for dawn.
[Chorus]
C G D G The clock played drums, and I hummed the sax. C D G And the wind whistled down, the railroad tracks. C G D G Hey three for a quarter, one for a dime. C D G I'll bet it's tomorrow, by Rocky Mountain time.
[Verse]
C G D G Walked in the restaurant, for something to do C G D G Waitress yelled at me, and so did the food C G D G And the water tastes funny, when you're far from your home C D G But it's only the thirsty, that hunger to roam
(Repeat chorus)
F G We'll build us a castle on Main Street F G And pretend that we're down on the farm F G Hell, we'll hold out as long as we have to A D Then we'll twist off each other's arm G C G Christ, I'm so mixed up and lonely C C/B G I can't even make friends with my brain C C/B G I'm too young to be where I'm going C C/B G But I'm too old to go back again C G D G Station was empty, trains were all gone. C G D G Reached in my pocket, and waited for dawn.
(Repeat Chorus)
