verse 1 
           C        F                Bb     F 
Across the railroad tracks, down the gravel road 
           C       Dm   C        Bb 
headlights throw a beam   on the way back home. 
    C         F            Bb    F 
Lie down, lie down, listen wide awake 
       C           F            Bb 
To the trains that roll, to the sound time makes. 

verse 2 
      C               F          Bb     F 
It passes through the air like a summer storm 
         C     Dm     C        Bb 
Catching on my sleeve   like a rose's thorn. 
     C       F             Bb       F 
Sometimes it whispers, sometimes it roars 
C              F           Bb 
Flies like the wind, waits by the door.

    F Bb       F               Dm    F 
And I know you know and that’s all I need 
         Bb       F              Am 
When the light of day looks like night to me 
            Bb   F           Dm   F 
When you’re far away and I’m all alone 
  Bb       F       C        F 
I can’t explain, I know you know.

verse 3 
   C           F               Bb    F 
It fills up my chest, it fills up my eyes 
        C         Dm  C           Bb 
like an old glass jar filled with fireflies. 
    C         F          Bb      F 
Sometimes I’m still, sometimes I sigh 
    C         F          Bb 
Sometimes I’m lost and I don’t know why

    F Bb       F               Dm    F 
But I know you know and that’s all I need 
         Bb       F              Am 
When the light of day looks like night to me. 
            Bb   F           Dm   F 
When you’re far away and I’m all alone 
  Bb       F       C        F 
I can’t explain, I know you know.

verse 4 
       C       F                 Bb        F 
In the morning light, before the heat sets in 
         C       Dm  C         Bb 
Call the dogs to run where the shade has been. 
           C        F               Bb     F 
Across the railroad tracks lay your silver down 
        C          F           Bb 
Find it smooth and flat, stars for your crown. 

Verse 5 
       C    F                  Bb      F 
In the blue distance where our lives unfurl 
    C            Dm   C            Bb 
The edges of the sky,   the beauty of the world.

When you’re far away and I’m all alone
