F#                G#m 
I'm waitin at the station 
                      F# 
I can choose my destination 
                      G#m 
I'm a free soul I got no chains 
                        F# 
But it's a long time between trains 
F# 
I took a long nap 
         G#m 
I read a whole book 
 
I got nice legs 
      F# 
I got decent looks 
F#                  G#m  
And I'm not one who complains 
                     F# 
But it's a long time between trains 
C#                         B      F# 
And who'd a'thought it all those years 
C#                       B    F# 
That I would find myself back here 
C#               B    F# 
Feeling restless and ignored 
                       G# 
Starin at the schedule board 
                        C# 
Wondering why the fates above 
                          F# 
Always route love thru Miami 
C#                         B      F# 
And sometimes lovers smile their smiles 
C#                B        F# 
While I count the ceiling tiles 
C#               B      F# 
And well give or take a few 
                           G# 
There's one thousand fifty two 
                        C# 
But that depends if you include 
                                 F# 
The eighty eight out in the hall 
F#                     G#m 
Yes I'm waiting at the station 
                    F# 
With my old friend sublimation 
F#                       G#m 
You know the Wright boys designed planes 
             F# 
Musta been a long time between trains
