D
I dressed up as a good man
Em
I charmed with all my might
A
I made you my girlfriend
G D D
I made you my wife
[Verse 2]
D
Yeah we got ourselves a little place
Em
Then I woke up to find
A
A rollin' iron boxcar
G D D A
That was taking me down the line
[Verse 3]
D
Yeah I'm carrying a lot of postcards
Em
I'm going west awhile
A
Through the fields and rusty train yards
G D D
Till the rails run out of miles
[Verse 4]
D
Till they put me on the westbound
Em
Singing sweetly over me
A
Your sound will be a rebound
G D D A
And the rails will trouble me
[Chorus]
G
Got her sound in the distance
G D D
And the sound of runnings' always on my feet
G
Got her sound in the distance
G D A
And the sound of runnings' always racing me
[Verse 5]
D
I passed the folks that never move
Em
Though their running every one
A
And me I'll run the mainlines
G D D
Until my racings done
[Verse 6]
D
Till they put me on the westbound
Em
Singing sweetly over me
A
Your sound will be a rebound
G D D A
And the rails will trouble me
[Chorus]
G
Got her sound in the distance
G D D
And the sound of runnings' always on my feet
G
Got her sound in the distance
G D A
And the sound of runnings' always racing me
[Chorus]
G
Got her sound in the distance
G D D
And the sound of runnings' always on my feet
G
Got her sound in the distance
G D A
And the sound of runnings' always racing me
