Intro
Riff 1 [2x]
Verse 1
Riff 1 Riff 1
Oh, I guess they'll say I've grown
D5/B
I know more than I wanted to know
E7 A7sus4
I said more, than I wanted to say
Chorus 1
Riff 1
I'm headed home
Riff 1
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
D5/B G5 Riff 1
That home is a place you can still get to by train
Post-Chorus 1
D5/B
So I'm looking out the window
E7
And I'm drifting off to sleep
D5/B G5
With my face pressed up against the pane
Dsus2
With the rhythm of my heart
G5
And a ringing in my ears
A7sus4* Riff 1 [2x]
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
Bridge
Dsus2 G5
Oh, well the wind starts to look like her hair
A7sus4*
And the clouds in her bright blue eyes
G5
As the sea and the shore fall and rise
Dsus2
Like her breast as she breathes by my side
https://www.coveralia.com/acordes/southbound-train-jon-foreman.php
And the moon is her lips
G5 A7sus4*
As the sun is headed on down to the sea
G5
Like her head as she lays down on me
Until we reach ocean side
Post-Chorus 2
D5/B
Over and over
G5
I hear the same refrain
Dsus2
It's the rhythm of my heart
G5
And my sleepy girl's breathing
A7sus4* Riff 2 [2x]
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
Verse 2
Riff 1 Riff 1
Oh, I guess they'll say I should have known
D5/B
Or maybe I'm just feeling old
E7 A7sus4
Like a lawyer with no one to blame
Chorus 2
Riff 1
I'm headed home
Riff 1
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
D5/B G5 Riff 1
That home is a place that will ever be the same
Post-Chorus 3
D5/B
So we gathering up our things
E7
And we head out in the cold
D5/B A7sus4
And your eyes are where you carry the pain
Dsus2
When I hear the whistle weeping
G5
It's crying to the sky
A7sus4* G5
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
A7sus4 Riff 1 [2x]
It's the rhythm of my southbound train
