Verse 1:
D#mD#m             FF
A augmentedA straw headed woman, and a barrel chested man,
D#mD#m              FF
A augmentedA pocket full of posies with a hat brim full of sand,
F#F#                   D#mF
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,

Verse 2:

A augmentedA dog chasing the tumbleweeds, across the sandy floor,
D#mD#m                    FF
That drift along the platform, through the ticket office door,
F#F#                   D#mF
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,
F#F#                   FF
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,
G+G             A minorAm         C majorC     FAm
But don't tell me there's nothing coming, you don't fool me,
G+G     A minorAm               C majorC         FF
I hear the ghost train rumbling along the tracks - set them free,
G#G#        G+G
And I hear them,

Chorus:
        C majorC      G minorGm   FF     G+G
It's black and white don't try to hide,
        C majorC      G minorGm   FF     G+G
It's black and white don't try to hide,

F minorFm G+G F minorFm G+G

Verse 3:
D#mD#m                 FF
The station master's writing with a piece of orange chalk,
D#mD#m           FF
A augmentedA hundred cancellations, still no one wants to walk,
D#mD#m                FF
Keep the hungry children from the skeletons in the back,
D#mD#m               FF
Paid to keep an eye out for the gipsy caravan,
F#F#                   D#mF
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,
F#F#                   D#mC#CB
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,
