Capo 5th fret, standard tuning
INTRO: ||: | | | :||
I hope this old train breaks down
Then I could take a walk around
And see what there is to see
And time is just a melody

You keep on rolling put the moment on hold
The frames too bright so put the blinds down low
[CHORUS TWICE]
| | | | | |
I wanna break on down
| | ||: | | | :|| . . .
But I can’t stop now
