I [F#] broke [C#] down in East St.
Louis,
[F#] [B] Kansas [F#] City line,
[C#] drunk [F#] up [C#] all of my [A#m] money [D#] that I borrowed [B] every time.
[F#] And [C#] I fell down [F#] at the [C#] derby,
[F#] the [B] night as [F#] black as a crow.
[C#] It was a train that [F#] took me [C#] away from [A#m] here, [D#] but a train [C#] can't bring me home.
What made [F#] my [C#] dreams so hollow?
[F#] [B] Standing at [F#] the depot, [C#] [F#] a street full [C#] of swallows [A#m] that [D#] could never ring a [B] bell.
[F#] And [C#] I've come ten thousand miles [F#] away, [C#] [F#] not one [B] thing to [F#] show.
[C#] It was a train that [F#] took me [C#] away [A#m] from here, [D#] but a train [C#] can't bring me home.

[C#] I remember [F#] when I [C#] left [F#] without bothering [B] to pay.
[F#] [C#]
Don't you know I was [F#] left [C#] [A#m] just a [D#]
clothesline [B] on my [G#m] back.
And [C#] I'm so sorry for what [F#] I've [C#] done, and [F#] I'm out here on [B] my [F#] own.
