  One toke over the line, sweet Jesus, one toke over the line 
              C5       A5      D5       F5        G5        C5 
  Sittin' downtown in a railway station, one toke over the line 
  C5 
  Waitin' for the train that goes home, sweet Mary 
  F5                           C5 
  Hoping that the train is on time 
              C5       A5      D5       F5        G5        C5 
  Sittin' downtown in a railway station, one toke over the line 
 

C5             F5               C5 
Who do you love, I hope it's me 
          D5        F5                     G5   
I've been changing,    as you can plainly see 
C5                                            F5                 C5 
   I felt the joy and I learned about the pain, and my mama said 
            A5                D5       F5 
If I should choose to make it part of me 
G5   
      Would surely strike me dead, and now I'm ... (chorus) 
 

C5         F5               C5 
I sail away, a country mile 
              D5       F5                     G5   
And now I'm returning,    and showing off my smile 
  C5                                        F5                  C5 
I met all the girls and I loved myself a few, and to my surprise 
          A5              D5          F5 
Like everything else that I've been through 
G5   
      They opened up my eyes, and now I'm ... (chorus)
