C G
I hope this old train breaks down
Am G
Then I could take a walk around
C G
And, see what there is to see
Am G
And time is just a melody
C
All the people in the street
G
Walk as fast as their feet can take them
Am G
I just roam through town
C
And though my windows got a view
G
The frame im looking through
Am G
Seems to have no concern for me now
So for now
{Chorus}
C Em
I, need this here
Am G
Old train to breakdown
C Em
Oh, please just
Am G
Let me please breakdown
C G
This engine screams out loud
Am G
Sayin the beat gonna crawl westbound
C G
So I dont even make a sound
Am G
Cause its gunna sting me when I leave this town
C
All the people in the street
G
That i'll never get to meet
Am G
If these dont bend somehow
C
And I got no time
G
That I got to get to
Am G
Where I dont need to be
So I
C G
I, need this here
Am G
Old train to breakdown
C G
Oh, please just
Am G
Let me please breakdown
C G
I, need this here
Am G
Old train to breakdown
C G
Oh, please just
Am G
Let me please breakdown
C G
I wanna break on down
Am G
But I cant stop now
C
But you cant stop nothing
G
If you got no control
Am
Of the thoughts in your mind
G
That you kept in, you know
C
You dont know nothing
G
But you dont need to know
Am
The wisdoms in the trees
G
Not the glass windows
C
You cant stop wishing
G
If you dont let go
Am
But things that you find
G
And you lose, and you know
C
You keep on rolling
G
Put the moment on hold
Am
The frames too bright
G
So put the blinds down low
C G
I, need this here
Am G
Old train to breakdown
C G
Oh, please just
Am G
Let me please breakdown
C G
I, need this here
Am G
Old train to breakdown
C G
Oh, please just
Am G
Let me please breakdown
C G
I wanna break on down
Am G
But I cant stop now
