Em7 D/F# G

Well, the morning came like a freight train

Bearing down on me from a thousand miles of rail

Em7 D/F# G

Well it came and gone And kept rolling on

Am Em7 D

Laying up all night with my tear-stained sheet as my veil

[Chorus]

I don't want to see you again

I don't want to feel your breath

Am C

As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept

And I don't want the keys to our door; I don't live there anymore

Am C Em7

And I'll do my best just to forget the dreams we've dreamt

[Verse 2]

Well, the morning came with the pouring rain

With the evidence and your crime confessed

Am Em7 D

Don't seem right that it’s me that spent a night in jail

[Chorus]

I don't want to see you again

I don't want to feel your breath

As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept

If you feel a chill in the air

If you ever get scared

You got a new life

Now the evenings come and I'm all alone

Well I'm holding on but I ain't too strong

I gotta get some rest before that train come back round the bend

[Chorus]

I don't want to see you again

I don't want to feel your breath

As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept

And I don't want the keys to our door; I don't live there anymore
