[INTRO]
C F Am F C G
C F Am F C
[Verse 1]
F Am
Well, I've been hoppin' freight trains all my life
F C G
I woke up cold and hungry, in the middle of the night
C F Am
Been on the wrong end of a drunkard's knife
F G C
And nowhere to send the letters that I write
[Verse 2]
C F Am
And I'll bet I've seen most every single town
F C G
But never stopped quite long enough to ever hang around
C F Am
'Cause that whistle makes a mighty lonesome sound
F G C
It's been on my mind, I'd love to settle down
[Chorus]
F Am
And I don't wanna ride the rails no more
F G
I wanna know a woman's love worth dyin' for
F Am
Hear children playin' through an old screen door
F G C
No, I don't wanna ride the rails no more
[Verse 3]
C F Am
The train's pullin' out at half past nine
F C G
The waitress said, "Hey stranger, how 'bout one more glass of wine?"
C F Am
We kept talkin' and we lost all track of time
F G C
The train pulled out, left us there behind
[Verse 4]
C F Am
For the first time in my life, I didn't run
F C G
I felt your arms around me and my rambling days were done
C F Am
Somethin' changed deep inside of me
F G C
The radio played "Love Is All You Need"
