VERSE A 
                 Am    C   
This train is my life 
G                    Am     C  
Speeding through the night 
   C/B                Am      C 
We have been to these places 
    G        Am     C  C/B 
For barely a moment 

VERSE B 
     Am   C   
Wide Awake 
G           Am   C   
  Sometimes watching 
C/B         Am   C   
  Sometimes sleeping 
G           Am       C    C/B 
  Sometimes dreaming 

VERSE A 
        G/B    Am        C 
Through stroby stations 
G                      Am   C 
Too fast to know their names 
C/B         Am         C    G             D 
Too fast to know if we came or will come again 

VERSE B 
         Am    C    
Sleeping towns  
G      Am     C 
joined together 
       C/B          Am 
By the steel of the rails 
         C 
Parallel lines 
G        Am     C   C/B 
Parallel lives 

Chorus 

        D 
You and I 
      D/E   D/A 
We're movie-rich 
D/G     D       D/E       D/A 
We're reflected in the window 
D/G      D       D/E          D/A 
The dark night's black mirror glass 
D/G     D               D/E               D/A    D/G 
Distant lights from the wrong side of the tracks  

BRIDGE 

The 'Christmas lights' parts is a slower  
high-pitched picking, below. Listen to the  
track to hear how to sing the lyrics

Christmas lights 
Go by in the houses 
Anonymous windows 
Anonymous rooms of 
Anonymous souls 

VERSE C 
           C 
So take my hand 
           D 
Squeeze it tight

Make some light  
           D 
In the darkness 

VERSE C

Don't lose your grip 
      G         Am  
Don't lose your grip 
     F           D 
This train is my life 
                 D 
This train is my life

This train is my life

          D 
And we'll see..
