*Chords are listed at end of song
Riff 1
Riff 2
Riff 1 (2x)
Riff 1 Riff 1
Oh, I guess they'll say I've grown
I know more than I wanted to know
I said more, than I wanted to say
Riff 1
I'm headed home
Riff 1
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
D5/B G5 Riff 1
That home is a place you can still get to by train
Post-Chorus 1
So I'm looking out the window
And I'm drifting off to sleep
With my face pressed up against the pane
With the rhythm of my heart
And a ringing in my ears
A7sus4* Riff 1 (2x)
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
Oh, well the wind starts to look like her hair
A7sus4*
And the clouds in her bright blue eyes
As the sea and the shore fall and rise
Like her breast as she breathes by my side
And the moon is her lips
G5 A7sus4*
As the sun is headed on down to the sea
Like her head as she lays down on me
Until we reach ocean side
Post-Chorus 2
Over and over
I hear the same refrain
It's the rhythm of my heart
And my sleepy girl's breathing
A7sus4* Riff 2 (2x)
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
Riff 1 Riff 1
Oh, I guess they'll say I should have known
Or maybe I'm just feeling old
Like a lawyer with no one to blame
Riff 1
I'm headed home
Riff 1
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
D5/B G5 Riff 1
That home is a place that will ever be the same
Post-Chorus 3
So we gathering up our things
And we head out in the cold
And your eyes are where you carry the pain
When I hear the whistle weeping
It's crying to the sky
A7sus4* G5
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
A7sus4 Riff 1 (2x)
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
