Some Of My Best Friends Are Trains

Key: AmMedium

FlAmashman's in the belfry, shouting as loud as he Gcan

AmSamson's up all night again, talking about himself

What a Gwonderful man

And DI'm just wild about EmRonnie

And CRonnie's just wild about Dme

I saw him Emselling winter coats on the CPortobello Road

I thought, I Dbet he wishes he was really working for theEm NME

When the Amgang Dcome Gdown here aDgain

And they're Amphoning up Australia and they Gcall each other names

And they Amall just wanna look like Richard GHell and Tom Verlaine

Some ofAm my best Cfriends are Gtrains

Now AmSteven's in a sweat, he just can't read Kerouac Gbooks, no

And AmRobin's all excuses, says he can't find much, but he Gdoes look

He goes Dup to the playfair

He goes Emdown with the stars

He goes Cwild all the weekend in a Dgirlfriend's car

And he Emcalls me from Chelsea and he Csays it's such a thrill

And though I Ddon't believe a word, but he keeps me Emtalking

Till the Amgang Dcome Gdown here aDgain

And they're Amphoning up Australia and they Gcall each other names

And they Amall just wanna look like Richard GHell and Tom Verlaine

Some ofAm my best Cfriends are Gtrains

DEmCDEmCD

AmGAmGAmGAmCG

And Amdid you ever have one of those days

Where the Gworld's wide open and you can do anything

And you can Amgo anywhere and you don't have to think

About Gwho you'll offend every time that you even blink

I'm Dgoing to the station where a Embig red train

Is Cwaiting to take me to the Dcountry again

Then Emyou'll come from Yonkers, but Cwhy should I care

It'll Drain and rain for days and days and youEm know I won't be there

When the Amgang Dcome Gdown here aDgain

And they're Amphoning up Australia and they Gcall each other names

And they Amall just wanna look like Richard GHell and Tom Verlaine

Some ofAm my best Cfriends

Yeah, the Amgang Dcome Gdown here aDgain

And they're Amphoning up Australia and they Gcall each other names

And they Amall just wanna look like Richard GHell and Tom Verlaine

Can I believe my ears? D

DIs this'a really you?

AmPacing the floor with one eye on the door, huh

DWatching the winners go to

Why do you hang Amback now?

It should have been Amyou

It should have been Dyou

It should have been Bmyou

It should have been Emyou C

Well, I Amknow who I'm looking for

But I Ddon't believe my eyes

The Amsight of you with your head hung low

Is aD sick, sad surprise

Now, why do you hang Amback now?

Why d'you hesitDate?

How dare you Amthrow it all away then you tell me

"Oh Dman, it must be fate"

Out of all of the Bmpeople

That I ever Emknew

There had to be one I could beClieve in

Destinies Entwined
