Intro
Riff 1 [2x]
Verse 1
Riff 1 Riff 1
Oh, I guess they'll say I've grown
D5/B
I know more than I wanted to know
E7 A7sus4
I said more, than I wanted to say
Chorus 1
Riff 1
I'm headed home
Riff 1
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
D5/B Gsus2 Riff 1
That home is a place you can still get to by train
Post-Chorus 1
D5/B
So I'm looking out the window
E7
And I'm drifting off to sleep
D5/B Gsus2
With my face pressed up against the pane
Dsus2
With the rhythm of my heart
Gsus2
And a ringing in my ears
A7sus4* Riff 1 [2x]
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
Bridge
Dsus2 Gsus2
Oh, well the wind starts to look like her hair
A7sus4*
And the clouds in her bright blue eyes
Gsus2
As the sea and the shore fall and rise
Dsus2
Like her breast as she breathes by my side
And the moon is her lips
Gsus2 A7sus4*
As the sun is headed on down to the sea
Gsus2
Like her head as she lays down on me
Until we reach ocean side
Post-Chorus 2
D5/B
Over and over
Gsus2
I hear the same refrain
Dsus2
It's the rhythm of my heart
Gsus2
And my sleepy girl's breathing
A7sus4* Riff 2 [2x]
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
Verse 2
Riff 1 Riff 1
Oh, I guess they'll say I should have known
D5/B
Or maybe I'm just feeling old
E7 A7sus4
Like a lawyer with no one to blame
Chorus 2
Riff 1
I'm headed home
Riff 1
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
D5/B Gsus2 Riff 1
That home is a place that will ever be the same
Post-Chorus 3
D5/B
So we gathering up our things
E7
And we head out in the cold
D5/B A7sus4
And your eyes are where you carry the pain
Dsus2
When I hear the whistle weeping
Gsus2
It's crying to the sky
A7sus4* Gsus2
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
A7sus4 Riff 1 [2x]
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
