[Intro]
Fm G Fm G
[Verse 1]
D#m F A straw headed woman, and a barrel chested man, D#m F A pocket full of posies with a hat brim full of sand, F# D#m F Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,
[Verse 2]
D#m F A dog chasing the tumbleweeds, across the sandy floor, D#m F That drift along the platform, through the ticket office door, F# D#m F Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes, F# F Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes, G Am C F Am But don't tell me there's nothing coming, you don't fool me, G Am C F I hear the ghost train rumbling along the tracks - set them free, G# G And I hear them,
[Chorus]
C Gm F G It's black and white don't try to hide, C Gm F G It's black and white don't try to hide,
Fm G Fm G
[Verse 3]
D#m F The station master's writing with a piece of orange chalk, D#m F A hundred cancellations, still no one wants to walk, D#m F Keep the hungry children from the skeletons in the back, D#m F Paid to keep an eye out for the gipsy caravan, F# D#m F Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes, F# D#m C# C B Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,
D#m Fm Gm G#
G Am C F I hear the ghost train rumbling along the tracks - set them free, G# G And I hear them, C Gm F G It's black and white don't try to hide, C Gm F G It's black and white don't try to hide, C Gm F G It's black and white don't try to hide, C Gm F G It's black and white don't try to hide, Eb F It's black and white (don't try), Eb F It's black and white (don't try), C Gm F G It's black and white don't try to hide, C Gm F G It's black and white don't try to hide, G# And I hear them, C Gm F G It's black and white don't try to hide, C Gm F G It's black and white don't try to hide,
