Key: G Intro: G C G C G C C G Verse 1: G D C I woke up this morning and wanted to throw myself away G D C Tried to sell my soul but it turns out it just ain't worth much these days G D C The sun cut through the curtains and awoke me from a sleep G D C My dreams cut through the daytime and the sour through the sweet
Pre-Chorus 1: G D C G And the papers came and said today would be like every other day G D C And I just could not go back home this way Chorus 1: G D C Now I'm sitting on a thrift store suitcase G C Not a nickel on my name G D C With holes in my heart and in both of my shoes G C Just waiting on a train G D C G C The old man over my shoulder says you'll have to find another way I fear G D C To run from all your blues boy D G There ain't no train that comes through here Verse 2: G D C The old man looks like Jesus, says I get that all the time G D C G But if I were I'd leave the coast and throw away my cardboard sign G D C He said I looked like an old friend he'd lost somewhere down the line G D C And that if I were his friend and if he were the Lord he'd turn the ocean into wine Pre-Chorus 2: G D C He said I had a family down in New Orleans that just lived beyond my means G D C I thought I’d just go out and find my scene Chorus 2: G D C Now I'm sitting on a thrift store suitcase G C Not a nickel on my name G D C With holes in my heart and in both of my shoes D G Just waiting on a train G D C G C You can watch the sun chase off the moon a million times I fear G D C Before you run from all your blues boy D G Ain't no train been through in years Bridge: C Amazing grace, no matter just how sweet the sound may be G D C Might save a wretch but not the chronically unsatisfied like me G D When my suitcase washes up to shore C G You might find what I was looking for G D But I don't need it anymore D I don't need this anymore Chorus 3: G D C I was sitting on a thrift store suitcase G C Not a nickel on my name G D C With holes in my heart and in both of my shoes D G Just waiting on a train G D C Old man says you oughta go back home boy G C Before we both catch our death out here G D C D G I know that'll be the day I catch the only train that comes through here Outro: C G G D C He said go home. all these days turn in to years G D C G D C Listen to an old man who knows that you can't get back home from here G D C You can't get home from here G D C You can't get home from here G D C You can't get home from here G You can't get home from here
