I ride on a mail train, [A] same bathroom.
I've been up all night, leaning on my window sill.
If [G] I die [F#m] on top of [E] a hill,
[A] if I don't make it, you know my baby will.
Don't the moon look good, mama, shining through the trees?
[D]
Don't the [A] brakeman look good, laying down that [D]
[A] double-e?
Don't the sun [G] look good [F#m] going down [E] to the sea?
[A] Don't the wind look good coming on down from the trees?

[A] When the time is coming, windows are filled with frost.

Love is love.
