Intro

Verse 1

Found myself in a barroom

Doin' things I ought not to

 Watching life as it slowly passed me by

I was holding on to lovers

 And disregarding others with my lies

Living my whole life like this

I guess is risky business

 Some folks say that I won't last too long

 And I can't say that I blame them

For saying what they're saying

 'Cause right now I'm just holding on

Chorus

I'm just an old dancehall dreamer

Living my life in the past

Holding on to dreams and them slow moving trains

And I don't know how long I can last.

Verse 2

So I called out to Jesus

Said Lord I really need you

 You've go to carry me for a while

 I've been running too long

Singing these old tired songs

 As the wheels keep pouring out the miles

Like I said I'm just a dreamer

But I've gotta' keep believing

 Someday things will go my way

 I'm just running from the devil

I've got one foot on the pedal

 While the other is laid up in the grave

REPEAT CHORUS

Break

play CHORUS chords

REPEAT CHORUS

Holding on to dreams and them slow moving trains

And I don't know how long I can last.
