I was working [E] on the [A] KCS rail line, [F#m] Katie was a girl [E] down the street.
[A] Well I took her [E] to a dance [F#m] on the [D] 4th of July, [A] hoping [E] she might fall [A] in love with me.
Well the band [E] started playing [A] right at night, [F#m] firecrackers popped [E] in the sky.
[A] We [E] danced and we danced, [F#m] Lord I never [D] had a chance, [A] well I got canned [E] on the 5th [A] of July.
[E] And we laughed [A] at the moonlight, [E] [F#m] I said goodbye and the grey [E] lights [A] on.
Yes the girl [E] of my [F#m] dreams, each and every [D] night it [A] seems it's one [E] that I hold [A] in my arms.
[E] [F#m] [D]
[A] [E] [A]
Well I was playing [E] in the [A] Tommyknocker tavern,
[F#m] and Jenny was the girl [E] at the bar.
[A] Well I [E] sang every [F#m] song to her and [D] her alone, [A] and kissed [E] her naked, called [A] her out of stars.
[E] And we laughed [A] at the moonlight, [F#m] I said goodbye and the grey [E] lights [A] on.
[E] [A] Yes the girl [E] of my dreams, [F#m] each and every [D] night it [A] seems it's one [E] that I hold [A] in my arms.

Seasons [F#m] [E] [A]
[E] [F#m] [D]
[A] [E] [A]
[E] come and change just [A] like the leaves,
[F#m] the red oaks in the [E] Chimney she went.
[A] Well they scatter [E] and they fall [F#m] where the land I [D] can't recall, [A] will I ever [E] find my [A] darling again.
[E] And we laughed [A] at the moonlight, [F#m] I said goodbye and the [E] grey lights [D] on.
[A]
[E] [A] Yes the girl [E] of my [F#m] dreams, each and every [D] night it seems [A] it's one [E] that I [A] hold in my arms.
Oh yes the girl [E] of my [F#m] dreams, each and every [D] night it [A] seems it's one [E] that I hold [A] in my arms.
