Chorus

Guitar key): G - D - G - D - A

I dressed up as a good man

I charmed with all my might

I made you my girlfriend

I made you my wife

Yeah we got ourselves a little place

Then I woke up to find

A rollin' iron boxcar

That was taking me down the line

Yeah I'm carrying a lot of postcards

I'm going west awhile

Through the fields and rusty train yards

Till the rails run out of miles

Till they put me on the westbound

Singing sweetly over me

Your sound will be a rebound

And the rails will trouble me

(chorus)

Got her sound in the distance

And the sound of runnings' always on my feet

Got her sound in the distance

And the sound of runnings' always racing me

I passed the folks that never move

Though their running every one

And me I'll run the mainlines

Until my racings done

Till they put me on the westbound

Singing sweetly over me

Your sound will be a rebound

And the rails will trouble me

Repeat chorus x2
