First Train Home

C               Em
I've got to get on it.
C               G
I've got to get on it.
C               Em
I've got to get on it.

G                       C        
Bodies disengaged, our mouths are
       Em              C
 fleshing over.
G               C
Is this an echo game?
        Em              C
Irises retreating to ovals of white.
G                       C    
The urge to feel your face, and 
                           Em      
blood rushing to paint my 
        C
handprint.
G                       C        
And Frisbee one by one; your 
       Em                       
vinyl on laminate, desperate for 
       C
some kind of contact.

Chorus:
G
First train home, I've got to get on
 it.
C
First train home, I've got to get on
 it.
G
First train home, I've got to get on
 it.
C
To Catch, to catch, catch-catch, 
catch.
G
First train home, I've got to get on
 it.
C
First train home, I've got to get on
 it.
G
First train home, I've got to get on
 it.

First Train home

G               C                
Temporal deadzone where clocks 
               Em              C
are barely breathing.
G                       C        
yet no one cares to notice for 
                   Em              
all the yelling, all night clamor 
    C
to hold it together.
G                       C        
I want to play--don't wait--forms
                    Em
 in the hideaway
                C
I want to get on with getting on 
with things
G                   C            
I want to run in fields, paint 
                               Em
the kitchen, and love someone
                C
And I can't do any of that here, can
 I?

G
First train home, I've got to get on
 it.
C
First train home, I've got to get on
 it.
G
First train home, I've got to get on
 it.
C
First Train home.

G           C                    
So what? You've had one too many.
       Em              C

        G               C         
So what? I'm not that much fun to 
      Em      C
be with.
G            C                  
So what? You've got a silly hat 
Em              C
on.
   Em           C                 
So what? I didn't want to come 
              Em
here, anyway.

G                               C
What matters you, doesn't matter,
                       G
 matter to me.
G                               C
What matters to me, doesn't 
                       G
matter, matter to you.
G                               C
What matters to you, doesn't 
                       G
matter, matter to them.
G                       C        
What matters to them, doesn't 
       D               G
change anything.

C               Em
Got to get on it.
C
First train home.
C               Em
Got to get on it.
C
First train home.
G
First train home I've got to get on 
it
(I've got to get on it)
C
To catch, to catch, catch-catch, 
catch.
(First train home)
G               C
First train home I've got to get on 
it
G               C
First train home.
(First train home)
G                                 
Got to, Got to, Got to, Got to, 
                      C            
Get, Get, Get, Get, Out, Out, Out, 
                           G
Out, Now, Now, Now, Now.
