I came back to my hometown incognito 
      Em             A 
To forget about it all 
    D                           Bm 
Suddenly, I heard "hey there papito-pito-pito 
           Em          A 
You don't ever give a call'

         Bm                        D 
remember we used to skip school together 
        Em                A 
said to me drunk girl, police man 
       Bm                        D 
Now, where have you been all my life 
             Em                   A 
I've been skipping school since then, yeah

I've been watching trains 
 Em             A 
swiftly rolling by 
D                  Bm 
I've been jumping them 
Em              A 
without long goodbyes 
D                   Bm 
to uncover rules of life 
     Em                A 
and how to break them well 
         Bm         D 
and the key to my gypsy auto pilot 
    Em            A 
and my story to tell, hey! 

(Bm D Em A)

(Bm D Em A) 
so we ran to outskirts of our town 
to the working man dance hall 
where all night we played piano-yano-yano 
off the chairs about to fall 
then we climbed the ladder to the attic 
where once i showed her my first song 
above the street where all them crazy dreamers 
still talking nonsense all night long 

Bm       D 
whoa-o whoa-o 
Em                  A 
nonsense all night long 
Bm       D 
whoa-o whoa-o 
         Em                A 
still writing their first song 

(Chorus) 

(bridge) 
         Bm           D 
and we laugh, and we cry 
         Em            A 
and we recited sacred text 
        Bm           D 
and we rose and we fell 
             Em              A 
and then we said, ok what's next? 

D                              Bm 
but, if you keep on watching trains 
Em               A 
swiftly, rolling by 
D                    Bm 
one day you will be gone 
 Em               A 
without long goodbyes 
D                    Bm 
to uncover rules of life 
     Em                 A 
and how to break them well 
         Bm           D                      Em 
and the key to your gonzo turbo gypsy auto pilot 
                   A 
and your story to tell 
           Bm 
story to tell
