 NOTE: I apologize in advance for the spacing issues on this tab. As hard as I  
tried to synchronize the chords with the lyrics, UG has some issues it needs to  
work out with it's text formatting.

C                       G               C 
I don't want to leave this train 
C              G                     C 
a world awaits with its fames 

              C                       G 
got me thinking of the times

playing through the night
