Chords

[INTRO (fade in):] C [VERSE 1:] Early train starts on time
G
Everybody else is feeling fine
Reading the papers and studying the form
        F                          C
And the people just taking this as norm
[VERSE 2:]
      G
Except me

F                                                   C
I don't seem to function 'til at least a quarter-to-three

             G
Stare at the floor

F                                              C
I don't want to take this Kings Cross train no more
[VERSE 3:] I'm drinking whiskey at the bar
G
Can't afford the dining car
Ruddy faced soldiers drink and curse
F                                   C
Find themselves out if it gets much worse
[VERSE 4:]
          G
Grates on me

       F                                  C
'Cause I don't even share the same philosophy

            G
Leaving the bar

        F                                                  C
Well, I wish that Kings Cross station didn't have to be so far

[VERSE 5:] Well, taking this journey to the South
G
To find work to feed the extra mouth
Find it hard, I to have to say
       F                        C
'Cause they don't talk the same way
[VERSE 6:]
         G
Grates on me

      F                                  C
Well, I don't even share the same philosophy

            G
Leaving the bar

    F                                                  C
