E                             D               E
Night train, silver moon, you ask me why, I'm flying
To float on ashen wings to choke on dust and feather
  D                 E          D                  E
I learned you are a liar, it's right we should pretend
    D              E           D                  E
And lie with one another, it's right we should be twins
    D               E
For I have loved no other

E                      D            A                      E
Look for me baby, well I'm draggin' lonliness and it's ten miles long
E                                        D                      A             E
I thought I heard you scream baby in the wheels of a train that crawls when I don't wanna go
             D               A       E
Cause you forget me when I'm gone, whoa

Look for me baby, whenever ice is glistening upon the glass
D'ya ever find your dream baby, well God knows I never hear mine close enough
I watched 'em slip away like this, whoa

               A               D                        A
I've been from one end of this street to the other, now I want the gifts ya promised me lover
