A Ebm straw headed woman and a F barrel chested man
A Ebm pocket full of posies and a F hat brim full of sand

A-Ebm drift along the platform through the F ticket office door

Ooh F# ooh, waiting for the train that never Ebm comes F

G … But don’t tell me there’s Am nothing coming,
you don’t fool F7 me
G I hear the Am ghost train rumbling
along the track to set them F7 free
G# And I hear them

G It’s black and C white don’t Gm try to F hide it
G It’s black and C white don’t Gm try to F hide it G

Ooh F# ooh, waiting for the train that never comes
