Verse 1:

C
The destination's
Am
Always changing
F                 C
The journey never ends
C
And as the train it
Am
Leaves the station
F                    C
Heartache all over again

Bridge 1:

Dm
In a world that's spinning
Dm          C
You keep my feet on the ground
Dm
But I wish that we could
E
Slow it down

Chorus:

F              C           G
Baby when the night rolls in
G        Am     G    F
Turn the lights down low
F    C         G
Just you in my arms
G            Am  G    F
Have a little old time soul
F         Dm       G
Leave the world outside
G            Am   G     F
Life ain't a race to be won
F      G         Am    G   F
Was it easier in black and white
F                               C
These days the colours start to run

Verse 2:

F
Trying to paint a picture
C
But it ain't easy
F                               C
When there's all the shades are blue
C
But like a vinyl record
Am
That's coming back around
F                 C
I'll be home real soon

Dm
Those good old days
Dm          C
Seem like a lifetime ago
Dm
Long summers when the river ran dry
    E
And time moved slow

Chorus:

F              C           G
Baby when the nights rolls in
G        Am     G    F
Turn the lights down low
F    C         G
Just you in my arms
G            Am  G    F
Have a little old time soul
F         Dm       G
Leave the world outside
G            Am   G     F
Life ain't a race to be won
F      G         E         Am    G   F
Was it easier in black and white

These days the colours start to run
