  			Am              B7        F                 C     Em 
The train that I got onto up and left that town 
Am       F#7            G 
Threw it up as it went down 
Am      B7                F                C      Em 
Strange enough it left me rude and turned around 
Am         F#7                 G 
Watched as they all took their vows 

F          E       F                   Am 
Fools were drawing trying to save that day 
F       E           D 
I don't doubt that anyway 

Am       B7            F            C       Em 
Phase it out until the older ones return 
Am     F#m               G 
Have a seat and watch it burn 
Am     B7               F                  C       Em 
Trace around the corner this is what I've learned 
Am     F#m           G 
Always waited for my turn
