Tom: E E [Verse] E Frisco's a mighty long way F#7 You can afford to fly B7 But it might as well be the moon, E Lord, when you're as broke as I. E Here I sit with my head in my hands F#7 Watching the trains roll by B7 Lord, the Helping Hand Mission man warned me E That the nights here got cold. [Chorus] A E B7 When you're cold there's nothing as welcome as sunshine E A When you're dry there's nothing as welcome as rain E B7 When you're alone there's nothing as slow as passin' time E When you're afoot Lord there's nothing as fast as a train. [Solo] E F#7 B7 E [Verse] E Old Frisco's a mighty rich city F#7 Now that ain't no lie B7 they have some buildings E That reach nearly a mile in the sky. E F#7 Everyone's so busy they can't tell me the reason why B7 E A Here's a world full of people so damn many people alone E B7 When you're alone life just don't seem worth living E E7 While you're alive gotta learn to live with the pain. A You've been grown for so long E There's no one left who'll forgive B7 You find yourself searching your mind E For the links to the chain. [Chorus] A E B7 When you're cold there's nothing as welcome as sunshine E A When you're dry there's nothing as welcome as rain E B7 When you're alone there's nothing as slow as passin' time A E When you're afoot Lord there's nothing as fast as a train.
