[Intro]
G C x4
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. 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 CM7 G I can't even make friends with my brain C CM7 G I'm too young to be where I'm going C CM7 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)
