Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Here we stand in the morning light
Wishin it was still last night
With the glow of firelight in our eyes.
And never a trace of goodbye.
If this train station was our room,
Then the sun would be the moon.
And all our tears would be the rain
I wish that were thunder, not a train.
(CHORUS)
While this southbound carries me to Birmingham
I'll take your memory while the rails take me down.
And I'll leave my heart with you.
'Cus I know you'll keep it safe 'till my leavin's thru
Keep our promise by your side
Let our true love be your guide
Through the mile that lie between
We'll close the distance when we dream
And while you're lying in the dark
And waken with a gentle start
You hear your name upon the wind
I'm coming home to you again
(Chorus)
'Cus I know you'll keep it safe 'till my leavin's thru
