  			Intro: G   D 


Well, a train blows a whistle  

Before it pulls away 
    G                         D 
But no word or warning do you say 
    A 
One minute right beside me 
 G               F               D 
Another you're a thousand miles away 



Well, I felt such a shaking  

And I heard such a whirr 
      G                                   D 
And I swore we were moving fast enough to blur 
       A 
Then I opened up my eyes  
    G                F                   D       A  Bm 
And found that we're right back where we were 


 
     G         A                        Bm 
Baby you're no train, you're the track 
       G        A                        Bm 
Always running away, always running back 
     G           A                             G       D      G        
Baby you're no train, you're the steam blowing by 


      D 
How I longed for the journey 

And those far distant lands 
    G                            D 
I believed all your promises and plans 
        A                        G 
Now I'm standing at the station 
              F            D       A  Bm 
With a lonely ticket in my hand 



     G         A                        Bm 
Baby you're no train, you're the track 
       G        A                        Bm 
Always running away, always running back 
     G         A                           G     F 
Baby you're no train, you're the silence behind 
    D          G      D        G 
So, roll on, roll on, roll on, roll on
