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

Verse 2:
D#m                            F
A dog chasing the tumbleweeds, across the sandy floor,
D#m                                        F
That drift along the platform, through the ticket office door,
F#                                      D#mF
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,
F#                                      F
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,
G                         Am                  C          FAm
But don't tell me there's nothing coming, you don't fool me,
G          Am                             C                 F
I hear the ghost train rumbling along the tracks - set them free,
G#                G
And I hear them,

Chorus:
               C           Gm     F         G
It's black and white don't try to hide,
               C           Gm     F         G
It's black and white don't try to hide,

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

It's black and white don't try to hide,
G#
And I hear them,
               C           Gm     F         G

It's black and white don't try to hide,
