C                                         F       C
Packing my suitcase writing a tearstained goodbye note
           F                   G7                       C
Staying so long to a love gone wrong and that's all she wrote
                                       F      C   F
Leaving behind what once was mine with sad re-gr-ets
             C                        G7                    C
But it's all gone now and I'm leaving town on my heartbreak express
                                                 F         C
Walking in the rain with a heart full of pain to the train depot
         F                          G7                 C
The only thing that's gonna keep me warm now is my overcoat
                                       F      C    F
Lost and lonely waiting in line at the ticket d-e-sk
              C                     G7                      C
Hey Mr. would you give me a one-way ticket on my heartbreak express
          F                C
I'm gonna roll on down the line
          D7                                G7
I'm gonna go so far I'm gonna get it off my mind
F                                                   C   F
It hurts to know it ain't enough when you give your b-e-st
                C                    G7                       C
Get a ticket to ride and I'm leaving tonight on my heartbreak express
                                                       F          C
Oh I couldn't hold a candle to the flaming beauty that caught his eye
                F                           G7                   C
It's killing me now but I won't stay around and let him watch me die
                                                       F              C     F
Oh it just goes to show that you never do know cause I never would've gue-ssed
                    C                           G7                    C
I'd be sitting here now on a train sorrow bound called the Heartbreak Express
          F                C
I'm gonna roll on down the line
          D7                                G7
I'm gonna go so far I'm gonna get it off my mind
F                                      C    F
Maybe someday somewhere someway I will for-get
                     C                                 G7             C
But there's no going back so roll on down my track you old heartbreak express
                                        G7                C
Feeling alone while a low whistle moans on the heartbreak express
