Intro: D* Cadd9 C* D  X2

D*
Said I want to live the city life
Cadd9
This small town could eat me alive
C*                                                D
I gotta pack my things and go where the railroad takes me
D*
Mama's too poor to send me away
               Cadd9
But I've been saving up on most everyday
C*                                          D
Little bit out of each check from the Gas & Deli


D*       Cadd9                   C*
And the whistle keeps on blowing
          D
And the train keeps on rolling



CHORUS:

And he said
D*                    Cadd9
I ain't never been to New York City
C*                        D
I ain't seen the San Francisco Bay
D*                     Cadd9
I ain't never tried my hand in Vegas
        C*
But you bet your bottom dollar
                            D           D*
That's where I'm going the day after today


       D*
So he locked the door and he killed the lights
       Cadd9
Took a six pack to get him through the night
       C*                                 D
Didn't have a plan just a good sense of direction
     D*
And Maybelline, his beauty queen
     Cadd9
She cried all night cause the sheet were clean
       C*                                  D
But he left her a lovers' note there apologizing


D*        Cadd9                     C*
He said I hear the whistle blowing
       D
Gotta catch it the train is rolling


CHORUS

D*
The air is thick on the concrete isle
      Cadd9
Ain't nothing green for like twenty miles
     C*                                 D
And he ain't use to the sun and moon a hiding
      D*
So he took his foot from out his mouth
        Cadd9
And he packed his things and went back down south
     C*                               D
But Maybelline said "Babe my time's arising."


D*     Cadd9                     C*
Said I hear the whistle blowing
        D
Gotta catch it the train is rolling



And she said
D*                    Cadd9
I ain't never been to New York City
C*                        D
I ain't seen the San Francisco Bay
D*                     Cadd9
I ain't never tried my hand in Vegas
 C*                                D
I never seen the L.A lights shine bright
         G
Bright, brighter than your smile was ever
Cadd9
Brighter than my desire was ever
C*                                       D
Longer burning than our love was ever...ohhhhh
