The day we caught the train (by Ocean Colour scene)

Em D G
I never saw it as the start its more a change of heart
F E
Rapping on the windows, whistling down the chimney pot
G
Blowing off the dust in the room
D C B
Where I forgot I laid my plans in solid rock
Em
Stepping through the door
A
Like a troubadour whiling just an hour away,
Em A
Looking at the trees on the roadside felling its a holiday

D A#dim
You and I should ride the coast
Bm A/C# Em
And wind up in our favourite coats just miles away.
G G
Roll a number write another song
A *
Like jimmy heard the day he caught the train.

Em D G
He sliped another rum and coke and told a dirty joke
F E
Walking like groucho sucking on a number 10
G D
Rolling on the floor with the cigarette burns walked in
C B
I'll miss the crush and I'm home again
Em
Stepping through the door
A
With the night in store whiling just an hour away,
Em A
Step into the sky in the starbright feeling its a brighter day.
A
You and I should ride the tracks
D
And find ourselves just wading through tomorrow
A
And you and I when we're coming down

We're only getting back
D A G Em
And you know I feel no sorrow.

D A
Oh Oh la la
G Em
Oh Oh la la
D A
When you find that things are getting wild
G Em
Don't you need days like these............
