[Am]
[E] [Am]
[C] You take a look [G] inside, [Dm] I got nothing [Am] left to hide
[C] Take me [E] as I am, not what [Am] I wanna be
The [C] why we'll [G] never know, [A] we passed that [Am] long ago
[C] Is and was [E] is all we're ever gonna [Am] be
He's almost shade down by the river, feels the breath
It makes him shiver, takes a breath, makes you [E] dive along
[Am] But the dead don't get no vacation, down in that subway station
The only break they take is [E] to the barn
And they're waiting on a train to [Am] take them home
[C] They're waiting on a [E] train to take them [Am] home
[C] I don't [G] think I see much of [Am] anything for me
[C] In visions of the [E] past or the ever [Am] after
Now [C] is what [G] can be, all [D] the rest is wait and see
[C] Those prophets [E] never hear that cosmic [Am] laughter
And gypsies in their wagons rolling never hear
Those death bells toll and never take no notice [E] of the toll
[Am] But I do, and my pulse gets quicker, scornful laughs and annoying snickers
Stop my heart and sink it [E] like a stone
Now I'm waiting on a train [Am] to take me home
[C] Just waiting [E] on a train to [Am] take me home

[Am] This ain't what [G] it seems, [Dm] and it's not the stuff [Am] of dreams
[C] Nothing [E] is clear as [Am] it seems, you know
[C] The somewhat [G] welcome news [Dm] is there is no [C] way to lose
Because what isn't [E] real is genuine [Am] illusion
And it's all about that great old dance
And some sit still, some still prance
And some get caught between them in [E] a zone
[Am] Well there's nothing left to give them cover
They can't even see each other, they just step and stumble [E] on their own
They're waiting on a train to [Am] take them home
[C] They're waiting [E] on a train
I'm waiting on a train
We're all waiting on a train to [Am] take us home
