C                G 
I hope this old train breaks down  
Am                  G  
Then I could take a walk around  
C                    G  
And, see what there is to see  
Am                  G  
And time is just a melody  
C                      
All the people in the street  
G 
Walk as fast as their feet can take them  
Am                    G  
I just roam through town  
C                              
And though my windows got a view  
G                    
The frame im looking through  
Am                              G  
Seems to have no concern for me now  
  
So for now  
  
{Chorus}  
C      Em  
I, need this here  
Am           G  
Old train to breakdown  
C    Em  
Oh, please just  
Am             G  
Let me please breakdown  
 
C            G  
This engine screams out loud  
Am              G  
Sayin the beat gonna crawl westbound  
C               G  
So I dont even make a sound  
Am                               G  
Cause its gunna sting me when I leave this town  
C  
All the people in the street  
G  
That i'll never get to meet  
   Am               G  
If these dont bend somehow  
C  
And I got no time  
G  
That I got to get to  
Am                   G  
Where I dont need to be  
  
So I  
 
C  G  
I, need this here  
Am           G  
Old train to breakdown  
C    G  
Oh, please just  
Am             G  
Let me please breakdown  
C   G  
I, need this here  
Am            G  
Old train to breakdown  
C    G 
Oh, please just  
Am              G  
Let me please breakdown  
C                 G  
I wanna break on down  
Am              G  
But I cant stop now  
  
C  
But you cant stop nothing  
G  
If you got no control  
Am  
Of the thoughts in your mind  
G  
That you kept in, you know  
C  
You dont know nothing  
G 
But you dont need to know  
Am  
The wisdoms in the trees  
G  
Not the glass windows  
C  
You cant stop wishing  
G  
If you dont let go  
Am  
But things that you find  
G  
And you lose, and you know  
C  
You keep on rolling  
G  
Put the moment on hold  
Am  
The frames too bright  
G  
So put the blinds down low  
  
C   G  
I, need this here  
Am           G  
Old train to breakdown  
C    G  
Oh, please just  
Am             G  
Let me please breakdown  
C   G  
I, need this here  
Am             G  
Old train to breakdown  
C    G  
Oh, please just  
Am              G  
Let me please breakdown  
C                 G  
I wanna break on down  
Am             G  
But I cant stop now
