Standard (EADGBE)

Leif and I are on the train to New York,

Car thirteen ninty - ni - ei - eiiiine.

There's a guy with a quarter in his ear

And I've seen Leif only once in the past two months,

(2)

Whoa

His hair is stickin' up a little in the front

Yeah, he's losing it just a bit

When I get home tonight I'll miss him, in Hampshire, yeah

His glass - es, the way he writes in purple pen

The way his collar falls to the left

Have you seen his ankles late - layyyyyy - ay - ay - ay - e-yeah

I know he's next to me, I feel his sweater here

But when I'm sleepin' its only green sheets

(3)

And the hair down my legs

Think I'll write you Lief, when I'm here Tuesday

Sometime before you go, back on the train

Leif and I are on the train to New York,

Car thirteen ninty - ni - ei - eiiiine.

There's a guy with a quarter in his ear

And I've seen Leif only once in the past two months

His hair is stickin' up a little in the front

Yeah, he's losing it just a bit

When I get home tonight I'll miss him, in Hampshire

His hair is stickin' up a little in the front

Yeah, he's losing it just a bit

When I get home tonight I'll miss him.

You can play this using the open G and C chords as

well, but it sounds like barre chords in the song

to me. Either way just follow this progression:

(4)

Notes with a "+" under them mean that they are very

staccato (short and not accented) so if you can't

play this piece as fast as Chris, exclude these notes.

Play this piece five times, and then on the sixth time

through, strum the last half of it.
