Downbound Train chords
Bruce Springsteen
Capo III
Em G D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D 2x
Em G
I had a job, I had a girl
D
I had something going mister in this world
Em G
I got laid off down at the lumber yard
D
Our love went bad, times got hard
Cmaj7 D
Now I work down at the car wash
Em
Where all it ever does is rain
C D Em D
Don t you feel like you re a rider on a down bound train
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/bruce_springsteen/downbound_train_crd_ver_4.html ]
Em G
She just said Joe I gotta go
D
We had it once we ain t got it any more
Em G
She packed her bags left me behind
D
She bought a ticket on the central line
Cmaj7 D
Nights as I sleep, I hear that whistle whining
Em
I feel her kiss in the misty rain
C D Em D
And I feel like I m a rider on a down bound train
Em G D 2x
Em G
Last night I heard your voice
D
You were crying, crying, you were so alone
Em G
You said your love had never died
D
You were waiting for me at home
Em G
Put on my jacket, I ran through the woods
D
I ran till I thought my chest would explode
Em G
There in the clearing, beyond the highway
D
In the moonlight, our wedding house shone
Em G
I rushed through the yard, I burst through the front door
D
My head pounding hard, up the stairs I climbed
Em G
The room was dark, our bed was empty
D
Then I heard that long whistle whine
Cmaj7 G
And I dropped to my knees, hung my head and cried
C D
Now I swing a sledge hammer on a road gang
Em
Knocking down them cross ties, working in the rain
C D Em D
Now don t it feel like you re a rider on a down bound train
Em G D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D 5x
