Misc Originals – Anders - Railroad Love (Guitar)

E                      C#m
Your mom and dad are asleep

                E                         Asus2    E
But you’re just waiting for the stroke of midnight

                         C#m
That’s when you’re gonna creep

         E             Asus2
Out your window by the moonlight

B
Dressed in black from head to toe

A
Like a shadow moving slow

B
You head east and I’ll head west

A
With our hearts a-beating out our chests

E    E         B      Asus2
Meet me on the tracks tonight

            C#m           B     Asus2
We’re gonna climb the old water tower

E    E         B      Asus2
Meet me on the tracks tonight

   B                                Asus2
Up there we can watch the stars for hours

E                               C#m
My daddy’s drunk and my momma’s gone

             E                        Asus2  E
He hates how lately she’s be carrying on

                     C#m
They don’t pay me no mind

    E                      Asus2
And I ain’t got no tree to climb

B
So I’ll put my leather jacket on

A
Hit the door and then I’m gone

B
If I head west and you head east

A
Then somewhere in between we’ll meet

     E    E          B      Asus2
I'll meet you on the tracks tonight

            C#m           B     Asus2
We’re gonna climb the old water tower

   E    E         B      Asus2
So meet me on the tracks tonight

     B                                Asus2
Up there we can watch the stars for hours

E                                C#m
Now we're asleep in each other’s arms

        E                     Asus2  E
As your mama’s morning coffee brews

                        C#m
We wake up with the dawn

    E                   Asus2
And realize that we are screwed

B
You run home by the morning light

A
Expecting that you’ll have a fight

B
But you get back into your room

A
As your mamma calls, “hey, it’s time for school”

B
I go home and walk on in

A
Daddy yells “son, where the hell you been?”

B
I say “old man, get off my back

A                                       Asus2
I was with my girl down by the railroad track

  E   E          B           Asus2
I met her on the tracks last night

       C#m             B     Asus2
And We climbed the old water tower

    E   E         B           Asus2
She met me on the tracks last night

   B                                   Asus2
Up there we just watched the stars for hours"
