Train Dreams chords by Nick Cave

• Difficulty: Beginner 👶

🎸 Verse 1:
E
I've seen a grizzly big as a house,

walk across an open plain.
A
Heard of a boy called Elvis something,

whose voice could drive young girls insane.
B
I've seen a man from a mile away

shoot a bobcat through the brain. But

🎸 Chorus:
E

Lately I've been having dreams,

crazy dreams I can't explain.
A
A woman standing in a field of flowers,

and a screaming locomotive train.
B
Crazy dreams that go on for hours.

And I can't begin to tell you how that feels.

🎸 Verse 2:
E
I've seen an elk with twisted antlers

throw bright lightning across the sky.
A
Seen a man with a broken curse,

leap from a bridge and try to fly.
B
And I've seen a boy who was a dog,

who became a man who forgot to die.

🎸 Chorus:
E
Lately I've been having dreams,

crazy dreams I can't explain.
A
A woman standing in a field of flowers,

and a screaming locomotive train.
B
Crazy dreams that go on for hours.

And I can't begin to tell you how that feels.

🎸 Verse 3:
E
The space that connects me to where I am now,

to the place where I'll one day be,
A
it's measured in the words we speak,

and the strange and wondrous things I've seen.
B
It's measured in truth, it's measured in love.

Measured in a tendency to pain.
E
It's measured by a girl in a field of flowers,

screaming, "Dream of a midnight train."
A
This has been going on for years, years,

and years and years and years and years and years and years and years.
B
I can't begin to tell you how that feels.
