[Verse 1]
B E F# Some roads are only seen at night B E F# Ghost roads -- nothing but neon signs. B E F# But some nights the neon gas gets free B E F# and turns into walking dead like me
[Chorus]
E F# B E And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep E F# B E One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep E F# B E I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name E F# B Baby, I was born on a train.
[Verse 2]
B E F# Well I know that you were never young B E F# And I know you probably won't get old B E F# But honey nobody's gonna hurt you anymore B E F# And nobody's going to make you want to die
[Chorus]
E F# B E And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep E F# B E One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep E F# B E I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name E F# B Baby, I was born on a train.
[Verse 3]
B E F# I'll go some cold and grey morning, B E F# and you won't remember anything B E F# But some people don't believe in dying, B E F# and some of us don't believe in life
[Chorus]
E F# B E And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep E F# B E One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep E F# B E I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name E F# B Baby, I was born on a train. E F# B Baby, I was born on a train.
