Start Jamming...
Well, my name is Robert Ellis and this is Westbound Train.
[D] [G]
The road was [F#m] dark [E] and long and [Am] you [D] heard a hopeful song
Playing louder than [E] anyone you'd heard [Am]
before
[D] Oh, I [F#m] know [E] that song cause she [Am] used to sing to me all [D] night long
And when the music stopped [E] by morning I was gone
[D] Now [E] those songs escape [D] my ear but to [E] you they're ringing [D] clear
Oh, that [C] Westbound train already passed me by
[G] And I know just why [G#] you'd wanna hitch a [C] ride
Oh, other trains [D] will be coming through
And I'm gonna catch [C] one too
[B] Yeah, we do what we have [G] to do
And [A]
[Am]
[D] [D]
[Am] [C] [G]
who am I [Em] to say [Am] what you do [G] along your way
You said yourself [D] this is a [Am] game you know how to play
[D] It [G] ain't right and it [Em] ain't wrong
But there's [Am] no sorrow [D] in this song
I knew it wouldn't be [B] too long for she [Am] moved on
[D] [Am] And I've moved [D] on too
I ain't [Am] got nothing but love for [D] you
Oh, that Westbound train already passed me by
And I know just why you'd [C] wanna hitch a [E] ride
Oh, [A]
other trains [Dm] will be coming through
[G] And I'm gonna catch [C] one too
Yeah, we [A] do what we have [G] to do
[G#] [Am]
[G] [D]
[C]
[G]
The Great [Am] Rearranger's changing everything again
I thought you stranger when I knew you way back [D] when
We [Am] are older now and there's no need to pretend
[D] Anything [Am] we have in life means more than friends
[A] Oh, [C] that Westbound [D] train already passed me by
And I know just why [C] you'd wanna hitch a ride
Oh, other trains [D] will be coming through
[G] And I'm gonna catch [C] one too
[A] Yeah, we [Am] do what [D]
we have [G] to do
Yeah, we do what we have to do
