E                        C#m7
I hear something hanging on the wind

E                     C#m7
I see black smoke up around the bend

  B                     C#m7
I got my ticket and I'm going to go

E    C#m7 E  C#m7

[Verse 2]
    E                          C#m7
The leaves have changed a time or two

E                                  C#m7
Since the last time the train came through

  B                     C#m7
I got my ticket and I'm going to go

[Interlude] D#m B E B A# B E C#m7 [Verse 3]
   E                          C#m7
My father's father's blood is on the track

  E                       C#m7
A sweet refrain drifts in from the past

  B                     C#m7
I got my ticket and I'm going to go

[Verse 4]
    E                      C#m7
The winding roads that led me here

E                           C#m7
Burn like coal and dry like tears

   B                  C#m7
So here's my hope, my tired soul

    B                   C#m7
And here's my ticket, I want to go
