Capo 3rd Frat !
Intro:D Bm D Bm
Verse 1:
D Bm
Crossed the desert in a dining car
DBm
In the spring of '91
DBm
Met some people drinkin' at the bar,
A
They were laughin', havin' fun
Told 'em that I hadn't heard the joke
That was so hilarious
They said that I was just a dumb cowpoke
I didn't want to make a fuss
Chorus:
G A
So I shot them down, one by one
D G
And left them 'long the rails
D
I only use my gun
ABm
Whenever kindness fails
Verse 2:
Moon was in the sign of Scorpio
The sun was at my back
I didn't know how far the train would go
Till the law would find my track
Saw the brakeman and the engineer
Drinking wine and eating brie
I asked them who would brake and who would steer
They started pointing back at me
Chorus
Solo:Repeat chords in chorus
Verse 3:
I only have a momment to explain
Just a chance to let you know
When it's time to board that train
There are 2 ways you can go.
You can ride the wind into the sun
Feel a cool wind on your face
Or you can laugh into a loaded gun
And you'll likely lose your place
Chorus:
Yeah I shot them down, one by one
And left them 'long the rails
I only use my gun
Whenever kindness fails
I shot them down, one by one
And left them 'long the rails
When I use my gun
That lonesome whistle wails
Outro:DBm (repeat)
