John Prine - New train

Full blown silence in an ^Dempty room A former bride and a ^Aformer groom A folding table and a f^Eolding chair A folded hand of p^Aoker there All new directions must go e^Dverywhere Big round people in a c^Aool little square You can't cut it with a ^Eboat or a plane Man it's gonna take a ^Dnew t^Arain

You'll be leaving on a ^Dnew train Far away from this ^Aworld of pain And when you look out your ^Ewindow you'll see Your home, your baby, and your ^Afamily No melted ice cubes in a ^Dpaper cup Hell, you'll be happy, you'll be ^Aall shook up The friends that greet you will be ^Esimple and plain When you step down from that ^Dnew ^Atrain

Collected volumes of ^Dhistory say Man makes mistakes most ^Aevery day The half a pound of ^Echopped ground round Is still a burger when it ^Agoes downtown No faded photographs of ^Dyesterdays Are in the books that I ^Aread these days To fly away from that ^Ememory town You must keep both your ^Afeet on the ground

Cuz you'll be leaving on a ^Dnew train Far away from this ^Aworld of pain And when you look out your ^Ewindow you'll see Your home, your baby, and your ^Afamily No melted ice cubes in a ^Dpaper cup Hell, you'll be happy, you'll be ^Aall shook up The friends that greet you will be ^Esimple and plain When you step down from that ^Dnew ^Atrain

I'll be leaving on a ^Dnew train Far away from this ^Aworld of pain The friends that greet me will be ^Esimple and plain When I step down from that ^Dnew ^Atrain ^DNew ^Atrain ^DNew ^Atrain
