F                         Dm     
Frisco's a full hour from home if
          G7
 you can afford to fly
       Gm                   C7 
But it might as well be the moon 
                F
when you're as broke as I
                              Dm   
Here I sit with my head in my hands
               G7
 and watch the trains go by
          Gm                       
Lord, the helping hand mission man 
C7                           F   F7
warned me the nights here get cold

Bb                                
When you are cold there's nothing 
              F
as welcome as sunshine
C7                                
When you're dry there's nothing as
            F    F7
 welcome as rain
Bb                                
When you're alone there's nothing 
               F
no slower than passing time
C7                                
When you're afoot there's nothing 
             F    F7
as fast as a train

Well Frisco's a mighty rich town, 
now that ain't no lie
Why they got some buildings that 
reach a mile into the sky
Yet no one can even afford just the 
time to tell me why
Here's a world filled with people 
and so many people alone

Cause when you're alone, you ain't 
got much reason for living
But while you're alive, well, you 
just have to live with your pain
Unless you've been wrong for so long
 there's no one left forgiving
And you find yourself searching your
 past for the links to the chain
