Tom: D D I dressed up as a good man Em I charmed with all my might A I made you my girlfriend G D D I made you my wife [Verse 2] D Yeah we got ourselves a little place Em Then I woke up to find A A rollin' iron boxcar G D D A That was taking me down the line [Verse 3] D Yeah I'm carrying a lot of postcards Em I'm going west awhile A Through the fields and rusty train yards G D D Till the rails run out of miles [Verse 4] D Till they put me on the westbound Em Singing sweetly over me A Your sound will be a rebound G D D A And the rails will trouble me [Chorus] G Got her sound in the distance G D D And the sound of runnings' always on my feet G Got her sound in the distance G D A And the sound of runnings' always racing me [Verse 5] D I passed the folks that never move Em Though their running every one A And me I'll run the mainlines G D D Until my racings done [Verse 6] D Till they put me on the westbound Em Singing sweetly over me A Your sound will be a rebound G D D A And the rails will trouble me [Chorus] G Got her sound in the distance G D D And the sound of runnings' always on my feet G Got her sound in the distance G D A And the sound of runnings' always racing me [Chorus] G Got her sound in the distance G D D And the sound of runnings' always on my feet G Got her sound in the distance G D A And the sound of runnings' always racing me
