Some roads are only seen at night
D G A
Ghost roads -- nothing but neon signs.
D G A
But some nights the neon gas gets free
D G A
and turns into walking dead like me
G A D G
And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep
G A D G
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep
G A D G
I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name
G A D
Baby, I was born on a train.
D G A
Well I know that you were never young
D G A
And I know you probably won't get old
D G A
But honey nobody's gonna hurt you anymore
D G A
And nobody's going to make you want to die
G A D G
And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep
G A D G
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep
G A D G
I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name
G A D
Baby, I was born on a train.
D G A
I'll go some cold and grey morning,
D G A
and you won't remember anything
D G A
But some people don't believe in dying,
D G A
and some of us don't believe in life
G A D G
And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep
G A D G
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep
G A D G
I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name
G A D
Baby, I was born on a train.
G A D
Baby, I was born on a train.
