I had a [Gm] job, I [Bb] had a girl, I had [F] something going on in this world.
I [Gm] got laid off, [Bb] no free yard, I [F] left my bed, times got hard.
[Eb] Now I work, down [Bb] at the [F] car wash, where all that ever [Gm] does is rain.
[Eb] Don't feel like [F] you're riding [Gm] on a car, [F] on a train.
She said, [Gm] Joe, I [Bb] gotta go, we [F] had it once, we ain't got it anymore.
She [Gm] packed her bags, left me [Bb] behind, she [F] wouldn't take it on the Central Line.
Now since [Eb] I sleep, I hear that [F] whistle whining, feel the chase, the [Gm] misty wind.
Don't [Eb] feel like [F] you're riding, [Gm] on a car, [F] on a train.

[Gm] Last night, I heard [Bb] your voice, you were crying, [F] crying, you were so alone.
You said [G] your love, [Gm] it never [Bb] died, you [Fm] were away from me at home.
I put on my [G] jacket, I ran through the [Bb]
woods, I ran till [F] I thought my chest would explode.
There [G] in the clear, [Gm] beyond the [Bb] highway, in the [F] moonlight, our wedding house shone.
I rushed to [G] the yard, I burst through [Bb] the front door, it [F] pounded hard, up the stairs I climbed.
The [G] room was dark, our bed was [Bb] empty, then I [F] heard that long whistle whine.
And I [Eb] dropped to my knees, hung my [Bb] head and cried.
Roll down my swing, [Eb] the sledgehammer on a [F] railroad gang, knocking down cross ties, working [Gm] the way.
[Eb] Don't feel like [F] you're riding, [N] on a car, on a train.
On a train.
On a train.
