Verse 1:
D MajorD   G+G       A augmentedA    D MajorD
Oh, I guess they'll say I've grown
 G+G        A augmentedA     B minorBm
I know more than I wanted to know
     E7E7          A7A7
I've said more than I wanted to say
      D MajorD
I'm headed home
G+G       A augmentedA   D MajorD
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
G+G   A augmentedA     B minorBm
 That home is a place
       G+G     D MajorD   G+G A augmentedA
You can still get to by train

Chorus 1:
    B minorBm
So I'm looking out the window
    E MajorE
And I'm drifting off to sleep
    B minorBm             G+G
With my face pressed up against the pane
     D MajorD
With the rhythm of my heart
    G+G
And the ringing in my ears
     A augmentedA            D MajorD   G+G D MajorD G+G
It's the rhythm of the southbound train


Verse 3:
D MajorD                     G+G
Oh, where the wind starts to look like her hair
                 A augmentedA
And the clouds in her bright blue eyes
                 G+G
As the sea and the shore fall and rise
                   D MajorD
Like her breast as she breathes by my side
                G+G
And the moon is her lips as the sun
             A augmentedA
Is headed on down to the sea
                 G+G
Like her head as she lays down on me
           B minorBm
Until we reach ocean side
         G+G
Over and over, I hear the same refrain

Chorus 2:
     D MajorD
It's the rhythm of my heart
    G+G
And my sleepy girl's breathing
     A augmentedA            D MajorD   G+G D MajorD G+G D MajorD G+G B minorBm G+G
It's the rhythm of my southbound train


Verse 4:
D MajorD    G+G         A augmentedA      D MajorD
Oh, I suppose they'll say I should've known
  G+G     A augmentedA      B minorBm
Or maybe I'm just feeling old
    E7E7          A7A7
Like a lawyer with no one to blame
      D MajorD
I'm headed home
G+G       A augmentedA   D MajorD
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
G+G   A augmentedA     B minorBm
 That home is a place
    G+G        D MajorD G+G A augmentedA
That'll ever be the same


Chorus 3:
   B minorBm
So we gather up our things
    E MajorE
And we head out in the cold
     B minorBm              G+G
And your eyes are where you carry the pain
    D MajorD
When I hear the whistle weeping
   G+G
It's crying to the sky
     A augmentedA            G+G
It's the rhythm of the southbound train
     A augmentedA            D MajorD   G+G D MajorD G+G D MajorD
It's the rhythm of the southbound train
