D5                          A5
I'm just a penny on the train track
  G5                       D5
Waitin' for my judgement day
  D5                       A5
Come on baby girl let me see those legs
  G5                     D5
Before I get flattened away
  D5
I wait


         G5
Yeah, I wait
       G5                            D5
For something good, for something great


  D5                           A5
Stoppin' in somebody's old home town
  G5                      D5
Gotta get that midnight meal
  D5                       A5
If you can't get behind your own life
  G5                      D5
Get behind the driving wheel


  D5         G5
And go, just go
 G5                           D5
Find a place that you don't know

Ran into a friend just the other night
Got a badge, he's a local cop
Haven't seen that boy in over seven years
Since out of high school I dropped

I see, I see
All the things that I should be

Oh baby dance with me!

Even lucky man has a bad day
And pretty girl has a scar
After that train comes and takes me away
Pick up that guitar

And play, just play
Play that rock and roll for me

He's in the yard just washin' his car
Thinkin' 'bout his pretty wife
Makin' lemonade with the kitchen aid
Makin' him a perfect life

And it's grim , so dim
When you wish that you were just like him

I'm just a penny on the train track
Waitin' for my judgement day
Come on baby girl let me see those legs
Before I get flattened away

I wait, I wait
For something good, for something great

And I try, oh I try
I can't stop, I don't know why
