Intro
Riff 1 (2x)
Verse 1
Riff 1 Riff 1
Oh, I guess they'll say I've grown
I know more than I wanted to know[D5/B]
E7 A7Sus4
I said more, than I wanted to say
Chorus 1
Riff 1
I'm headed home
Riff 1
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
D5/B Gsus2 Riff 1
That home is a place you can still get to by train
Post-Chorus 1
So I'm [D5/B]looking out the window
And I'm [E7]drifting off to sleep
With my [D5/B]face pressed up against the pan[Gsus2]e
With the [Dsus2]rhythm of my heart
And a [Gsus2]ringing in my ears
A7Sus4* Riff 1 (2x)
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
Bridge
[Dsus2]Oh, well the wind starts to look like her [Gsus2]hair
A7Sus4*
And the clouds in her bright blue eyes
As the sea and the shore fall and [Gsus2]rise
Like her breast as she breathes by my [Dsus2]side
And the moon is her lips
Gsus2 A7Sus4*
As the sun is headed on down to the sea
Like her head as she lays down on[Gsus2] me
Until we reach ocean side
Post-Chorus 2
[D5/B]Over and over
I [Gsus2]hear the same refrain
It's the [Dsus2]rhythm of my heart
And my [Gsus2]sleepy girl's breathing
A7Sus4* Riff 2 (2x)
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
Verse 2
Riff 1 Riff 1
Oh, I guess they'll say I should have known
Or maybe I'm just feeling old[D5/B]
E7 A7Sus4
Like a lawyer with no one to blame
Chorus 2
Riff 1
I'm headed home
Riff 1
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
D5/B Gsus2 Riff 1
That home is a place that will ever be the same
Post-Chorus 3
So we [D5/B]gathering up our things
And we [E7]head out in the cold
D5/B A7Sus4
And your eyes are where you carry the pain
When I [Dsus2]hear the whistle weeping
It's [Gsus2]crying to the sky
A7Sus4* Gsus2
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
A7Sus4 Riff 1 (2x)
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
