[Intro] F Bb C Bb (x2) [Verse 1]
F
Doesn't matter if it's real or not

Bb
It isn't wise to make it stop

C
It's used to getting only what it wants

Bb
And we're in no shape to be fought

F
It has no mercy with wings it's got

Bb
A shadow longer than you could've thought

C
It's not in any mood to talk

Bb
Has me cornered and it has you caught
[Pre-Chorus]
    Bb                  C                    F
Out walking the city in your boots in the rain

     Bb                     C                    F
I've been here sitting down looking out into the waves

      F                              Bb
I'm indifferent now to any other pain

           Bb   C                     F
I hear the ocean when I wanna to hear trains
[Chorus]
           Bb   C                   F
I hear the ocean when I wanna hear trains

               Bb    C                F
I wanna change horses I wanna switch lanes
[Verse 2]
F
In the morning a fool is quick to pretend

Bb
This night too does not begin

C
With a shot glass coming up again

Bb
Elbows down to the bitter end

F
You're in the bar light with your smoke rings

Bb
And a stranger who's leaning in

C
I'm hoping to blackout and land

Bb
Long before you're more than friends
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                       C                    F
I'm being handled like a pistol and a boy who plays

      Bb                 C                         F
While lost in the saddle two thousand miles out of range

        F                                 Bb
I'm not listening but it's calling out my name

           Bb   C                    F
I hear the ocean when I want to hear trains
[Chorus]
           Bb   C                   F
I hear the ocean when I wanna hear trains

               Bb    C                F
I wanna change horses I wanna switch lanes
[Solo] F Bb C Bb (x2) [Verse 3]
F
I'm in the desert now with this flag being raised

Bb
This is surrender and these are the cruelest of days

C
I'm not working with a net below I pay

Bb
I hear the ocean when I want to hear trains
[Chorus]
           Bb   C                   F
I hear the ocean when I wanna hear trains

           Bb   C                   F
I hear the ocean when I wanna hear trains
