Intro
Riff 1 (2x)

Verse 1
Riff 1 Riff 1
Oh, I guess they'll say I've grown
I know more than I wanted to know[D5/B]
I said [E7]more, than I wanted to say[A7sus4]

Chorus 1
Riff 1
I'm headed home
Riff 1
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
D5/B G5 Riff 1
That home is a place you can still get to by train

Post-Chorus 1
So I'm [D5/B]looking out the window
And I'm [E7]drifting off to sleep
With my [D5/B]face pressed up against the pan[G5]e
With the [Dsus2]rhythm of my heart
And a [G5]ringing in my ears
A7sus4 Riff 1 (2x)
It's the rhythm of my southbound train

Bridge
[Dsus2]Oh, well the wind starts to look like her [G5]hair
A7sus4
And the clouds in her bright blue eyes
As the sea and the shore fall and [G5]rise
Like her breast as she breathes by my [Dsus2]side

And the moon is her lips
G5 A7sus4
As the sun is headed on down to the sea
Like her head as she lays down o[G5]n me

Until we reach ocean side

Post-Chorus 2
[D5/B]Over and over
I [G5]hear the same refrain
It's the [Dsus2]rhythm of my heart
And my [G5]sleepy girl's breathing
A7sus4 Riff 2 (2x)
It's the rhythm of my southbound train

Verse 2
Riff 1 Riff 1
Oh, I guess they'll say I should have known
Or maybe I'm just feeling old[D5/B]
Like a [E7]lawyer with no one to b[A7sus4]lame

Chorus 2
Riff 1
I'm headed home
Riff 1
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
D5/B G5 Riff 1
That home is a place that will ever be the same

Post-Chorus 3
So we [D5/B]gathering up our things
And we [E7]head out in the cold
And [D5/B]your eyes are where you carry the pain[A7sus4]
When I [Dsus2]hear the whistle weeping
It's [G5]crying to the sky
A7sus4 G5
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
A7sus4 Riff 1 (2x)
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
