Verse 1

      G        Cadd9
Got a guitar
      G            Cadd9
Got a guitar on my back
        Em               D        Cadd9        G       Cadd9
And I'm standin' on this lonesome railroad track
          G        Cadd9
Train's a comin'
      G                 Cadd9
It'll be here 'fore too long
      Em                D       Cadd9         G
But I don't think I can stop it with a song
            Am7         Cadd9       G
Girl that's kind of the way I'm feelin'
Am7       Cadd9          
Tryin' to stop your leavin'


Verse 2

      G        Cadd9
Got a pebble
      G            Cadd9
Got a pebble in my hand
      Em                   D             Cadd9   G       Cadd9
And I toss it out into the middle of the Rio Grande
                    G        Cadd9
But the river keeps runnin'
           G               Cadd9
Don't even know that I'm around
        Em                 D        Cadd9           G
I could throw in a million more and not slow it down
            Am7         Cadd9       G
Girl that's kind of the way I'm feelin'
Am7       Cadd9         Em         Cadd9
Tryin' to stop your leavin'


Bridge

G                    D             Em     Cadd9
There's nothin' that I wouldn't try
G                     D              Cadd9
If I thought it would change your mind


Verse 3 (palm mute or arpeggio)

              G          Cadd9
But you don't love me
             G           Cadd9
No you don't love me anymore
      Em              D        Cadd9        G
And I know as soon as you walk out that door
          G         Cadd9  
Train's a comin'
        G           Cadd9     
river's runnin'
          G               Cadd9
Train's a comin', river's runnin'
         G                 Cadd9
Pain's a comin', tears are runnin'
            Am7         Cadd9       G
Yeah that's kind of the way I'm feelin'
        Am7        Cadd9         Em       Cadd9  G  D
Knowin' I couldn't stop your leavin'


Em Cadd9 G D (ending in G)
