Chords
Em G D
Em G
I had a job, I had a girl
D
I had something going mister in this world
Em G
I got laid off down at the lumber yard
D
Our love went bad, times got hard
C D
Now I work down at the carwash
Em
Where all it ever does is rain
C D Em G D
Don't you feel like you're a rider on a downbound train
Em G
She just said "Joe I gotta go
D
We had it once we ain't got it any more"
Em G
She packed her bags left me behind
D
She bought a ticket on the Central Line
C D
Nights as I sleep, I hear that whistle whining
Em
I feel her kiss in the misty rain
C D Em G D
And I feel like I'm a rider on a downbound train
Em G D
Em G
Last night I heard your voice
D
You were crying, crying, you were so alone
Em G
You said your love had never died
D
You were waiting for me at home
Em G
Put on my jacket, I ran through the woods
D
I ran till I thought my chest would explode
Em G
There in the clearing, beyond the highway
D
In the moonlight, our wedding house shone
Em G
I rushed through the yard, I burst through the front door
D
My head pounding hard, upstairs I climbed
Em G
The room was dark, our bed was empty
D
Then I heard that long whistle whine
C G
And I dropped to my knees, hung my head and cried
C D
Now I swing a hammer on a road gang
Em
Knocking down them cross ties, working in the rain
C D Em G D Em G D
Now don't it feel like you're a rider on a downbound train
Em G D .......
(there ya go....)
