INTRO 
 
Verse 
------ 

F#m                            E 
There's a little girl out lying on her own 
Dbm                A 
She's got a broken heart  
F#m                           E 
She's not the kind to keep you down for long 
Dbm                    A 
She knows and plays it smart 
F#m                      A 
And if she's coming she's shown no more 
F#m                            A 
She's heard the whistle blowing from the door 
F#m                       A 
Feels like leaving and she don't know why 
F#m 
Without no bridges she's trapped, 
E 
 So I sigh 


A               D           A               D 
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide 
A           D            A 
Don't try denying living on the other side 
         E              D  G    D 
All your life, you were on your own

F#m  E   A             D    E  A 
If   you want, you can ride my train 
                                   D 
Soon forget the reason that you're leaving 
F#m  E   A        D    E   A         
Lose yourself and then sometimes 
                              D 
Maybe even save yourself some grieving 
         E          F#m          D   E  A 
Woooaaaooooh woooaaaooooh woooaaaooooooooh
