Capo III


E minorEm G+G D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD 2x


    E minorEm      G+G
I had a job, I had a girl
        D MajorD
I had something going mister in this world
      E minorEm           G+G
I got laid off down at the lumber yard
       D MajorD
Our love went bad, times got hard
   Cmaj7Cmaj7      D MajorD
Now I work down at the carwash
             E minorEm
Where all it ever does is rain
     C majorC         D MajorD     E minorEm     D MajorD
Don’t you feel like you’re a rider on a down bound train

       E minorEm     G+G
She just said Joe I gotta go
     D MajorD
We had it once we ain’t got it any more
        E minorEm       G+G
She packed her bags left me behind
       D MajorD
She bought a ticket on the central line
      Cmaj7Cmaj7           D MajorD
Nights as I sleep, I hear that whistle whining
               E minorEm
I feel her kiss in the misty rain
   C majorC        D MajorD     E minorEm     D MajorD
And I feel like I’m a rider on a down bound train


E minorEm G+G D MajorD 2x


   E minorEm         G+G
Last night I heard your voice
         D MajorD
You were crying, crying, you were so alone
       E minorEm       G+G
You said your love had never died
     D MajorD
You were waiting for me at home
     E minorEm            G+G
Put on my jacket, I ran through the woods
       D MajorD
I ran till I thought my chest would explode
     E minorEm            G+G
There in the clearing, beyond the highway
    D MajorD
In the moonlight, our wedding house shone
           E minorEm            G+G
I rushed through the yard, I burst through the front door
         D MajorD
My head pounding hard, up the stairs I climbed
       E minorEm        G+G
The room was dark, our bed was empty
    D MajorD
Then I heard that long whistle whine
   Cmaj7Cmaj7                 G+G
And I dropped to my knees, hung my head and cried

   C majorC             D MajorD
Now I swing a sledge hammer on a road gang
                       E minorEm
Knocking down them cross ties, working in the rain
       C majorC         D MajorD     E minorEm     D MajorD
Now don’t it feel like you’re a rider on a down bound train


E minorEm G+G D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD 5x
