Tune down a 1/2 step
[Intro]
G     C
G  D  G
[Chorus]
I'm goin' Gdown to the railway station, gonna get a Cticket to ride
Find a Gbig, fat lady with two or three kids and sit Ddown by her side
GRide 'til the sun comes up and down around me 'bout Ctwo or three times
Smokin' Gcigarettes in the last seat
DTryin' to hide my sorrow from the people I meet
[Verse]
And get aGlong with it all
Go down where Cpeople say "y'all"
Sing a Gsong with a friend
Change the Dshape that I'm in
And get Gback in the game
And start Cplayin' agaiGnD  
[Verse]
GI'd like to stay but I might have to go to start Cover again
Might go Gback down to Texas or might go to somewhere that DI've never been
And Gget up in the mornin' and go out at night
And I won't Chave to go home
Get used to Gbein' alone
Change the Dwords to this song
Start Gsingin' againC  G  D  
[Interlude]
G     C
G  D  G
[Verse]
I'm tired of Grunnin' round lookin' for answers to questions that I Calready know
I could Gbuild me a castle of memories just to have sDomewhere to go
Count the Gdays and the nights that it takes to get back in the Csaddle again
Feed the Gpigeons some clay
Turn the Dnight into day
Start Gtalkin' again, when I Cknow what to saGyD  
[Interlude]
G     C
G  D  G
[Chorus]
I'm goin' Gdown to the Greyhound Station, gonna get a Cticket to ride
Find a Gbig, fat lady with two or three kids and sit Ddown by her side
GRide 'til the sun comes up and down around me 'bout Ctwo or three times
Smokin' Gcigarettes in the last seat
DTryin' to hide my sorrow from the people I meet
[Verse]
And get aGlong with it all
Go down where Cpeople say "y'all"
Feed the Gpigeons some clay
Turn the Dnight into day
Start Gtalkin' again, when I Cknow what to saGyD
