	        C                                         F       C 
Packing my suitcase writing a tearstained goodbye note 

           F                   G7                       C 
Staying so long to a love gone wrong and that's all she wrote 

                                       F      C   F 
Leaving behind what once was mine with sad re-gr-ets 

             C                        G7                    C 
But it's all gone now and I'm leaving town on my heartbreak express 


                                                 F         C 
Walking in the rain with a heart full of pain to the train depot 

         F                          G7                 C 
The only thing that's gonna keep me warm now is my overcoat 

                                       F      C    F 
Lost and lonely waiting in line at the ticket d-e-sk 

              C                     G7                      C 
Hey Mr. would you give me a one-way ticket on my heartbreak express 


          F                C 
I'm gonna roll on down the line 

          D7                                G7 
I'm gonna go so far I'm gonna get it off my mind 

F                                                   C   F 
It hurts to know it ain't enough when you give your b-e-st 

                C                    G7                       C 
Get a ticket to ride and I'm leaving tonight on my heartbreak express 


                                                       F          C 
Oh I couldn't hold a candle to the flaming beauty that caught his eye 

                F                           G7                   C 
It's killing me now but I won't stay around and let him watch me die 

                                                       F              C     F 
Oh it just goes to show that you never do know cause I never would've gue-ssed 

                    C                           G7                    C 
I'd be sitting here now on a train sorrow bound called the Heartbreak Express 


          F                C 
I'm gonna roll on down the line 

          D7                                G7 
I'm gonna go so far I'm gonna get it off my mind 

F                                      C    F 
Maybe someday somewhere someway I will for-get 

                     C                                 G7             C 
But there's no going back so roll on down my track you old heartbreak express 


                                        G7                C 
Feeling alone while a low whistle moans on the heartbreak express
