Downbound Train Bruce Springsteen
I had [Gm]a job, I had a g[Bb]irl
I had something [F]going mister in this world
I got laid [Gm]off down at the lumber yar[Bb]d
Our love went bad[F], times got hard
Now I work do[Eb]wn at the ca[F]rwash
Where all it ever does is [Gm]rain
Don't you fe[Eb]el like you're a ri[F]der on a dow[Gm]nbou[Eb]nd tr[F]ain
She just said "J[Gm]oe I gotta g[Bb]o
We had it onc[F]e we ain't got it any more"
She packed her ba[Gm]gs left me behin[Bb]d
She bought a t[F]icket on the Central Line
Nights as I sl[Eb]eep, I hear that whistle whi[F]ning
I feel her kiss in the misty rai[Gm]n
And I fee[Eb]l like I'm a ri[F]der on a dow[Gm]nbou[Eb]nd tr[F]ain
| Eb7 | F | F | Gm | Eb | F | Gm | F |
Last nig[Gm]ht I heard your v[Bb]oice
You were crying[F] you were so alone
You said your l[Gm]ove had never d[Bb]ied
You were w[F]aiting for me at home
Put on my j[Gm]acket, I ran through the w[Bb]oods
I ran till I thoug[F]ht my chest would explode
There in the clea[Gm]ring, beyond the hig[Bb]hway
In the moo[F]nlight, our wedding house shone
I rushed through the ya[Gm]rd, I burst through the fr[Bb]ont door
My head pounding har[F]d, up the stairs I climbed
The room was da[Gm]rk, our bed was em[Bb]pty
Then I he[F]ard that long whistle whine
And I dro[Eb]pped to my knees, hung my head and [Bb]cried
Now I swing a s[Eb]ledge hammer on a railroad g[F]ang
Knocking down them cross ties, working in the r[Gm]ain
Now don't it f[Eb]eel like you're a r[F]ider on a dow[Gm]nbou[Eb]nd t[F]rain
Have Fun!!
