Train Tracks by Jason Webley






                               Train Tracks









I've transposed it into the key of C to avoid the dreaded bar chords. You might like to 
replace G (3-2-0-0-0-1) with G (3-5-5-4-3-3) sometimes, so that you can then slide your 
fingers down two frets for a nice transition into F, depending on how funky you want to get.


C_________G________________F
I know that you've been feeling tired
C_________G_____________F
I hear your voice is wearing thin
C___________G____________Am________F
I know you've slept so many places in the past few days
____C_____________G_________________F
You can't remember just which bed you're in

C_______________G_______________F_______F-C-G-C
There's something familiar about this room
C___________G____________F_________________F-C-G-C
Anywhere you go it's just like you've been there before
C______________G_____________Am_________F
So if you want to step outside this body and this world
_____________C_________________G___________F
You're going to have to go through a different kind of door


C____________G_________F______________F-C-G-C
  And this train only runs in summertime
C________________G____________F_______F-C-G-C
  The children have been let out of school
C___________G________________Am_____________F
  You haven't packed the bottoms of your shoes are cracked
_________C_______________G_______________F_____F-C-G-C
  But your passport has been kissed be the holy fool


____C_______________G_______________F_______F-C-G-C
The smiling Crosseyed barefoot dressed in rags
C_________G____________F____________________F-C-G-C
Bend down talking to the crows
C_________G______________Am___________F
He's got no words to tell ya, just some magic beans to sell ya
C_______________G_______________F___________F-C-G-C
Plant them and in time the tracks will grow


C____________G_________F____________________F-C-G-C
  And this train only runs in summertime
C______________G_____________F______________F-C-G-C
  The parents are lying beside the pool
C_________G__________Am_________F
  The cup is cracked, it's broken by the tacks
_________C_______________G_______________F_________F-C-G-C
  But your passport has been kissed be the holy fool


------>C______G___________F
   Are you looking for salvation?
______________C______________________G
   Are you looking from answers from Jesus for dancers
_________F
   To serve you some warmth on cold nights?
C_________________________G___________________________Am
   Are you looking for the thing that looks out through your eyes?
_______F
   For something that won’t leave your side?
______________C_______________G_______________F
   On this lonely planet where everyone’s waving goodbye.

C_________G_________________F_______F-C-G-C
I know that you’ve been working hard
C___________G___________________F_____________F-C-G-C
You want the whole world to see how brightly you can glow
___C_____________G____________Am____________F
But if you just trade everything for that small bag of dried up beans
C_________G_________________F_______
Its only time until the whistle bloooooooooow!


C___________G_________F__________F-C-G-C
And this train only runs in sum-mer time!
____C________G__________F________F-C-G-C
The only contradiction is the rule
C_________G________Am________F________C__________G_____________F
Its moving fast but its not gong to last and an open empty boxcar stares at you


Note: (F-C-G-C) is the little accordian riff that you should play one strum per chord, 
if you're using a guitar.

Also... for the actual version

Transpose to the key of F

C=F
G=C
F=Bb
Am=Dm
