(intro)  ( A5 Bb5 B5 C5 C#5 D5 C5 A5 Bb5 B5 C5 )

    C5                                D5
I?m al-ways running behind the time
              G5       C5
Just like this      train
F5
   Shaking into town
A5                         C5       G5
   With the brakes com-plai-ning

D5                                      C5
    I used to count lovers like railroad  cars
I counted them on my side
F5                       A5
Late-ly I don?t count on noth-ing
                 C5
I just let things slide

            G5                       F5
The station mas-ter?s shuffling cards
             G5
Box cars are bang-ing in the yards

Jealous lovin?ll make you crazy
If you can?t find your goodness
F5                        D5   G5   C5
  ?Cause you lost your heart

( A5 Bb5 B5 C5 C#5 D5 C5 A5 Bb5 B5 C5 )

       C5
I went look-ing for a cause
Or a strong cat without claws
  D5                G5
Or   any reason to re-    -sume
    C5 F5
And I   found this empty seat
A5                       C5
  In this crowded waiting room
G5
Ev-erybody waiting

D5                         C5
    Old man sleeping on his  bags
Women with that teased-up kind of hair
F5                       A5
Kids with the jitters in their legs
               C5
And those wide, wide open stares
                 G5                      F5
And the kids got Cokes and chocolate bars
                   G5
There?s a thin man smo-king a fat cigar

Jealous lovin?ll make you crazy
If you can?t find your goodness
F5                        D5
  ?Cause you lost your heart

G5
    What are you gonna do now?
                                      C5
You?ve got no one to give your love to

( A5 Bb5 B5 C5 C#5 D5 C5 A5 Bb5 B5 C5 )
      C5
Well, I?ve got this berth
And this roll-down blind
D5                      G5
   I?ve got this fold-up sink
    C5     F5                    A5
And these rocks and cactuses go-ing by
      C5                               G5
And a bottle of German wine to drink

D5                               C5
    Settle down into the clickety-clack
With the clouds and the stars to read
F5                            A5
Dream-ing of the pleasure I?m gon-na have
              C5
Watching your hair-line recede
My vain darling

              G5                       G5
Watching your hair and clouds and stars
                G5                G5
I?m rocking away in a sleeping car
                G5                           G5
This jealous lov-ing?s bound to make me cra-zy
                F5                      D5
I can?t find my good-ness, I lost my heart
             G5                      C5
Oh, sour grapes, because I lost my heart
