INTRO:{E} -{C#m} - G#m - B 
      E -{C#m} - G#m - B 
 
E These are the words that C#m cry out of me in the night G#m---B 
E Like a buffalo herd from a C#m shotgun blast scattered in flight G#m G# 
 
{A}I got a one track mind  
Going down a E one train line  
Living on B dreams half the time  
Going E west E7 
 
A I gotta pick up speed  
Just to get E what I need  
The end of the B line guaranteed  
Your love is my E rest B  
 
E The coal catches fire and I'm C#m down the wire in a flash G#m---B 
E That big old smokestack is C#m belching out black smoke and ash G#m G# 
 
A So sad to think of  
Hurting the E one you love  
But surely that's B what leaving does  
You would know E best E7  
 
{A}I gotta pick up speed  
Just to get E what I need  
The end of the B line guaranteed  
Your love is my E rest   
B Your love is my E rest

E I stand in the land of C#m Custer's last stand and I grin G#m---B 
E So this is where old C#m yellow-hair's ghost-dance begins G#m G# 
 
A I got the blood on my hands  
Can't even E live where I stand  
I'm just a B travelling man  
Cursed or E blessed E7 
 
A I gotta pick up speed  
Just to get E what I need  
The end of the B line guaranteed  
Your love is my E rest B
