Bruce Springsteen - Downbound train

I had a ^Emjob, I had a ^Ggirl I had something ^Dgoing mister in this world I got laid ^Emoff down at the lumber ^Gyard Our love went ^Dbad, times got hard Now I ^Cmaj7work down at the ^Dcar wash Where all it ever does is ^Emrain Don t you ^Cfeel like you re a ^Drider on a ^Emdown bound ^Dtrain

She just said ^EmJoe I gotta ^Ggo We had it ^Donce we ain t got it any more She packed her ^Embags left me be^Ghind She bought a ^Dticket on the central line Nights as I ^Cmaj7sleep, I hear that whistle ^Dwhining I feel her kiss in the misty ^Emrain And I ^Cfeel like I m a ^Drider on a ^Emdown bound ^Dtrain

Last ^Emnight I heard your ^Gvoice You were crying, ^Dcrying, you were so alone You said your ^Emlove had never ^Gdied You were ^Dwaiting for me at home Put on my ^Emjacket, I ran through the ^Gwoods I ran till I ^Dthought my chest would explode There in ^Emthe clearing, beyond the ^Ghighway In the ^Dmoonlight, our wedding house shone I rushed through the ^Emyard, I burst through the ^Gfront door My head pounding ^Dhard, up the stairs I climbed The room was ^Emdark, our bed was ^Gempty Then I ^Dheard that long whistle whine And I ^Cmaj7dropped to my knees, hung my head and ^Gcried

Now I ^Cswing a sledge hammer on a ^Droad gang Knocking down them cross ties, working in the ^Emrain Now don t it ^Cfeel like you re a ^Drider on a ^Emdown bound ^Dtrain
