[Em] [A] [C] [G]
[E] [Em] The [Am] walls were built up, [G]
stone [D] by stone, [Em] [Am] fields divided one [G] by one.
[Em] And the train [Am] conductor says, [G] take a break, [D] drive a [G] break, [Em] drive a break, take [Am] a break.
[G] We've been on this [D] ship too long.
And [G] the train [D] conductor says, [G] take a break, [D] drive a break, [G] drive a break, take [D] a break.
We [G] can't reach our [E] [D] destination.
We'll [E] always [D] wait.
We'll [E] always [Em] wait.
[Am] Saw three [G] houses on the outskirts of the barn.
[Em] The power [Am] lines have floated [G] so the airplanes won't get snapped.
[Em] The bells are [Am] ringing through the [G] town again.
The [Em] children [Am] look up all they [G] hear is sky [D] blue bells ring.
[G] And the train [D] conductor says, [G] take a break, [D] drive a break, [Em] drive a break, [D] take a break.
[G] We can't reach our [D] destination.
Still [E] waiting, [D] but still.
[E] [D] Still waiting, but still.
[A] [Am] Way too [C]
hazy.
[G] Waiting for myself [D] to leave.
[Am] Way too [C] hazy.
[G] Waiting for myself [D] to open the sea.
[E] [A] [C] [G]
[E] [A] [B] [G]
[E] [Em] I looked at [Am] this song [G] in a plane [D] like that one.
[Em] She's [Am] selling fake [G] on the rooftop the same.
[Em] [Am] Locomotive eight [G] southern press in [D] here.
The [G] bell's [Em] ringing again.
The [Am] field's wheat is looking [G]
[D] thin.
[G] And the train [D] conductor says, [G] take a break, [D] drive a break, [G] drive a break, [D] take a break.
[G] We've been on this ship [D] too long.
[G] And the train [D] conductor says, [G] take a break, [D] drive a break, [G] drive a break, take [D] a break.
We [G] can't reach our destination.
[D] Still waiting, but still.
Still [E] waiting, [D] but still.
