The Day We Caught the Train

guitar chords lyrics

Ocean Colour Scene

Needed to transpose this to something a bit better for my voice,so thought I'd share

Bm A D
I never saw it as the start it's more a change of heart
C B
Rapping on the windows, whistling down the chimney pot
D
Blowing off the dust in the room
A G F#
Where I forgot I laid my plans in solid rock

Bm
Stepping through the door like a troubadour
E
Whiling just an hour away
Bm
Looking at the trees on the roadside
E
feeling it's a holiday

A F
You and I should ride the coast
F#m E Bm
And wind up in our favourite coats just miles away
D D
Roll a number write another song
E
Like Jimmy heard the day he caught the train
A E D Bm
Oh Oh la la Oh Oh la la (x2)

Bm A D
He sipped another rum and coke and told a dirty joke
C B
Walking like Groucho sucking on a number 10
D A
Rolling on the floor with the cigarette burns walked in
G F#
I'll miss the crush and I'm home again
Bm
Stepping through the door with the night in store
E
Whiling just an hour away
Bm E
Step into the sky in the starbright feeling it's a brighter day

A F
You and I should ride the coast
F#m E Bm
And wind up in our favourite coats just miles away.
D D
Roll a number write another song
E
Like Jimmy heard the day he caught the train.
A E D Bm
Oh Oh la la Oh Oh la la (x2)

E Bm
You and I should ride the tracks
E A
And find ourselves just wading through tomorrow
E Bm
And you and I when we're coming down
E
We're only getting back and you know I feel no sorrow
A E D Bm

A E D Bm
Oh Oh la la Oh Oh la la (x2)

Outro
A E
When you find that things are getting wild
D Bm
Don't you want days like these

(Repeat outro 3 times - last time change "want" to "need") then into the La La La's to fade
