G
Well I feel just like a freight train baby,
running out of steam.
        Em7
I wanna go on down to New York town,
but I'm stuck in between.
            D
And I could stay on here at home alone
and have myself to thank,
           C
But I just made a billion dollars
and I don't wanna put it in the bank,
          D       C
So if you call...
               G
we could go to town.
Well dear mom, 
if you could see me now here underneath the lights
         Em7
I gotta keep 'em on from dusk to dawn
and everything's alright.
        D
I met a girl with autumn in her eyes
and summer in the way 
     C
She makes me feel
like I was only born today or yesterday,
            D      C
And if she calls...
               Am
we could go to town.
But everybody here
hates everything I say,
    Em
and girl I just don't know
if I can last another day.
       Am
So I guess I'm going back,
Bm
back where I belong,
   C
I hope you come along
          D
before I get back on that train that takes me...
G
home from New York City 
to the things I left behind
            Em7
And 'though I ain't got no money girl
, I'll always have the time.
       D
But I wish that you would hurry,
I hope you get here soon
              C            Csus4
'cause I just sold the sky to the sun
           Am7              G
so I could buy for you the moon.
           D       C
And if you call...
               G               D    C
we could go to town. So if you call...
              D    C
yeah, if you call...
              D   C
girl, if you call...
               G
we could go to town.

End on G
