F5                         D5               G5 
Frisco's a full hour from home if you can afford to fly
       G5                   C5                 F5
But it might as well be the moon when you're as broke as I
                              D5                  G5
Here I sit with my head in my hands and watch the trains go by
          G5                       C5                           F5   F5
Lord, the helping hand mission man warned me the nights here get cold

Bb5                                              F5      
When you are cold there's nothing as welcome as sunshine
C5                                            F5    F5
When you're dry there's nothing as welcome as rain
Bb5                                               F5
When you're alone there's nothing no slower than passing time
C5                                             F5    F5
When you're afoot there's nothing as fast as a train

Well Frisco's a mighty rich town, now that ain't no lie
Why they got some buildings that reach a mile into the sky
Yet no one can even afford just the time to tell me why
Here's a world filled with people and so many people alone

Cause when you're alone, you ain't got much reason for living
But while you're alive, well, you just have to live with your pain
Unless you've been wrong for so long there's no one left forgiving
And you find yourself searching your past for the links to the chain
