Westbound Train

G D Em The road was dark and long Am G D and you heard a hopeful song G D Em Am7 D7 playin' louder than any one you heard before. G D7 Em Oh, I know that song, Am G D she used to sing to me all night long G Em Am7 D7 and when the music stopped by morning, I was gone. Am7 D7 Now those songs escape my ears, Am7 D7 but to you they're ringing clear C D7 Oh, that westbound train already passed me by G C and I know just why you'd wanna hitch a ride, oh C D7 G C Other trains'll be comin' through and I'm-a-gonna catch one too, Am G Yeah, we do what we have to do. G G D Em And who'm I to say Am G D what you do along your way? G D Am7 D7 You said yourself this is a game you know how to play. G D7 Em It ain't right, it ain't wrong. Am G D But there's no sorrow in this song, G Em Am7 D7 I knew it wouldn't be too long 'for she moved on. Am7 D7 And I've moved on too, Am7 D7 I ain't got nothin' but love for you. C D7 Oh, that westbound train already passed me by G C and I know just why you'd wanna hitch a ride, oh D7 G C Other trains'll be comin' through and I'm-a-gonna catch one too, Am G Yeah, we do what we have to do. G Am7 D7 The Great Rearrangers changin' everything again Am7 D7 Thought you stranger when I knew you way back when Am7 D7 We are older now and there's no need to pretend Am7 D7 That anything we have in life means more than friends C D7 Oh, that westbound train already passed me by G C and I know just why you'd wanna hitch a ride, oh D7 G C Other trains'll be comin' through and I'm-a-gonna catch one too, Am D7 Yeah, we do-oooo-oooo-oooo-ooo-ooo-oo what we have to do.
