Standard (EADGBE)

First verse:

I took a ride, the other day, on a late night train,

Not knowing, where it goes.

It was kinda funny, for a while, until I realized,

That I don't know where I am.

Second verse:

There was a woman, by the window, with her hair pulled back,

singing a song, that I recognized.

It was kinda funny, for a while until I realized,

she was singing out loud, all to herself.

Chorus

And I don't know if its in the books but I think I'm on the right track.

Yeah, my shoes are worn and my legs are tired but I gotta be on the right

track.

I'm taken the bad stuff back, I gotta be on the right track.

Repeat intro x1

Third verse:

I wrote a song, the other day, about nothing at all,

I don't know why, I guess it keeps me going strong.

It was kinda funny, for a while, until I realized,

that I'd been writing that song, all damn day!

Repeat Chorus x1

Forth verse (play palm muted):

Well I wish, I had a tambourine cause I'd play it too.

And if you took my tambourine away I'd be like, "hey, how could you?"

And it would be kinda funny, as I watched it go away

Then I'd smile, and find something else to play.

Bridge/Verse

Singing hey............. I gotta be on the right track.

Saying hey, hey-hey-hey, I gotta be on the right track

I'm taking the bad stuff back,

I gotta be on the right track.

Repeat final verse x1
