Tom: C

     C               F          C
Well I broke down in East Saint Louis
       Am     F    C
On the Kansas City line
      C        F      Am
and I drunk up all my money
       D7             G7
that I borrowed every time

      C         F      C
and I fell down at the derby
            Am      F          C
and now the night's black as a crow
         C          F        Am
It was a train that took me away from here
      D7          G7       C     F C
but a train can't bring me home

     C       F         C
What made my dreams so hollow
      Am       F            C
I was standing there at the depot
       C       F       Am
with a steeple full of swallows
           D7             G7
that could never ring the bell

      C        F              C
and I come ten thousand miles away
     Am      F        C
with not one thing to show
              C          F        Am
well it was a train that took me away from here
      D7          G7       C     F  C
but a train can't bring me home

Interlude:  Am F - C - C F - C - F F7 - D F - D F - G7

    C      F      C
I remember when I left
        Am    F      C
without bothering to pack
    C      F      Am
you know I up and left with
                D7                  G7
nothin' but the clothes I had on my back

        C         F         C
now I'm sorry for what I've done
        Am       F     C
and I'm out here on my own
              C          F        Am
well it was a train that took me away from
           D7          G7       C     F   C
here but a train can't bring me home 
                  C          F        Am        
it must've been a train that took me away from here
      D7         G7                           C     F  C
but a train can't bring me ... can't bring me home
