The Roches - The train

^FI sit down on the train ^FWith my big pocketbook The ^Cguitar and a ^Gsugar-free drink ^GI wipe the sweat off of my brow With the side of my ^Carm And I ^Ftake off all that I ^Gcan I am trying not to have a bad ^Cday Now, ^Dmeverybody knows the ^Fway that ^Cis ^F

^FEven though my baggage and I Are using up a ^Ctwo person ^Fseat I'm not ^Gtrying to be funny But the guy who sits down next to^C me Is ^Feven bigger than ^Gthat We are ^Foverflowing out of the ^Cseat And ^DmI can't look at ^Fhim, he doesn't look at ^Cme

^FOnce you step on ^FYou might never get off Of the com^Cmuter train It ^Fdoesn't go very far a^Cway But just the same ^F It's a trip and a ^Chalf ^F

^FMy face is pressed up against the window And through it I can ^Csee The re^Fflection of the train I ^Cspy on the big guy sitting next to ^Gme He's ^Cdrinking two beers And ^Freading the New York ^GPost ^FTrying not to get in my ^Cway Now, ^Dmeverybody knows the kinda ^Fday that ^Cis ^F

N.C.

He is miserable

N.C.

And I am miserable

N.C.

We are miserable

N.C.

Can't we have a party

N.C.

Would he rather have a party

N.C.

After all we have to sit here

N.C.

And he's even drinking a beer

N.C.

I want to ask him what's his name

N.C.

But I can't 'cause I'm so afraid Of the man on the ^Ctrain
