          Am                        G
They say "Roscoe how's it hanging? Heard you got a new job!

         C
Can you come home Saturday?"

Well I graduated early then dropped out of college

Got no degree but still got paid

        Am                         G
Then I made out at a party with a boy I really knew

I check the timetables for you

     Am              G                        C
The station with the trains that are always late

Am                  G                      C
Past the tree they cut down when we were twelve, before we grew up

[Verse]
   Am                           G
I tried to write a song about falling in love

        C
But I just kinda just cried

        Am                            G
Then I tried to write a song about ghosts I don't believe in

     C
Without telling lies

     Am                        G
I'd try to write a song about being dead but I

C
Still haven't died

    Am                               G
I tried to write a song about the mansion on fourth street

         C
But we know what happened there, and I don't want to retry
[Chorus]
   Am        G              C
I check the timetables for you

     Am              G                        C
The station with the trains that are always late

[Bridge]
Am                              G
What they don't tell you about turning eighteen:

           C
You get a car but you read the speedometer wrong

         Am              G
Then you go too far too fast too crazy

     C
And nearly crash it on a narrow highway

                   Am                     G
So you call your parents! 'cause they're supposed to help

                   C
But they're still worried for your mental health

                  Am                          G
And no matter how many times you've tried to tell them it's not suicide

      C
They just won't listen and your eyes still cry

         Am                          G
And you shut out your mind, and you know you should be grateful you survived

C
But you wish you kinda died then came back

Am                      G
Like in movies and the train track rock makes your

C
Limbs slack you lack the ability to read the time

Am               G
So you just read the time tables instead and

C
Think about the last time you saw your best friend and

      Am                   G        C
You think about the last time you lied
[Chorus]
   Am        G              C
I check the timetables for you

     Am              G                        C
The station with the trains that are always late

Am                  G                      C
Past the tree they cut down when we were twelve, before we grew up

     Am     G         C
You have a boyfriend now

     Am        G       C
I'm still not out of town
[Outro]
          Am                        G

         C

        Am                   G

But still couldn't get laid

     Am                         G
So yeah, I'm free on Saturday, free on Sunday,

C
Free every single day

  Am                         G
Yeah, I'm free on Saturday, free on Sunday,

C
Free every single day
