[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
The North Train 2 Adelaide [Eb] will depart from Platform 1 stopping for station. _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ [E] Early [C] born train station agent from the arthritis.
[E] This war [Am] veteran knows [Em] what a hard time is.
He needs his pension, [F] dementia and heart blindness.
The reason he rides the train with no [C] car license.
So he boards with an expired ticket, has a swipe.
[Em] Gets a [Am] fine cause the [Em] changing gods don't add up right.
We're talking about a man that never lived a lavish life.
Brought up in the age of computer chips and satellites.
A lovely lady boards looking tired and half awake.
He smiles, she reminds him [C] of his wife that passed away.
She says [E] often as she walks right [C] past his way.
His old [A] hearing aids don't last quite [E] half a day.
[C] Some young gentleman alive with the laughter.
[Em] Approach the old [Am] timer and put a [Em] knife to his heart to.
Explain the money or blood, the price of their partner.
To a man whose friends probably died for their fathers.
Taking the [E] train, dragging the [C] pain.
I [G] had to run the train twice.
I had to run the commuter train.
[C] We're from a [B] city everyone loves, the [G] devil's in our blood.
Whatever it takes can justify whatever ends we make.
Whatever the price, to the end of a life is just an observation.
[Am] [B] So take a [Am] ride, we stop at all [Em] stations.
It's been a long night, the sun's lifted [C] on a cold.
[Em] Morning bus is drugged and drunk, tripping on a stroll.
On the way home she's done, stripping on a pole.
But she can't pay for her son, living on the dole.
Jumps a train, puts on her gloves, she's wearing black.
Being watched by some old mug, she's glaring back.
She's on edge and got the buck from [C] Sheriff Smack.
So she [Am] says, hey what [Eb] the fuck you [Em] staring at?
Smiles and a steady hand rubs on his [C] dome.
She takes a seat, a messy band of ruffs, what a load.
To the [E] digger with a machete at his lungs and he's [C] prone.
He can barely stand but ready to stand up for his own.
She tries to help him, she doesn't choose to see the car.
And catches [A] the boy with [Em] enough bruise to leave a scar.
She starts flinting the rooms, moving to see a star.
Saying ain't it amazing how courageous human beings are?
Picking a [Eb] train, picking a [C] train.
I just want the [G] train, train, train, train station.
I'm the girl, I'm the girl.
[Am] We're from a city everyone loves, the devil's in [Em] charge.
Whatever it [E] takes can justify whatever [G] ends we make.
Whatever the [C] price of the end of a [G] life is just an observation.
[Am] [G] So take it [Am] right, we stopping all stations.
He knows [E] nothing but tall strife and [C] hard yakka.
[Em] Pissed at the world for playing wife in a slammer.
This man was never given [E] a life or damn platter.
So he jumps a train with knife and bandana.
[C] Boys at his back sleazy, hardened in fire.
From [Em] giving a [Am] fuck an easy [Em] target is mine.
Sneaks an old man upstairs, see we part with ya [Ab] hard.
Burn cash arrest [Em] in peace, we can start with ya hard.
Some girl snaps, not afraid she's gonna cop a sweet.
And gets tech before she made it even on her feet.
The old man leapt to her aid and to his [C] horror he's.
Thrusting his chest into the blade of his robber's piece.
He grabbed the wallet, dropped the knife as he fled the car.
[Em] Concerned about the loss of life he'd never get this far.
What's done [C] is done, he got the prize and his friend is high.
Of two [D] dollars and change and [Em] a pension card. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
So take it right, cause we stopping all stations. _ _
