Well I followed her to the station with a suitcase in my hand
        C                          D                      G   D7  G G/C G
Yea, I followed her to the station with a suitcase in my hand

Whoa, it's hard to tell it's hard to tell 
Em            C        G    G7 G D
But all your love's in vain

When the train come in the station I looked her in the eye
Well the train come into the station and I looked her in the eye
Whoa, I felt so sad, so lonesome that I could not help but cry

SOLO

When the train left the station, it had two lights on behind
Yea, when the train had left the station, it had two lights on behind
Whoa, the blue light was my baby, and the red light was my mind

All my love's in vain
D7   D/F#   Em       C         G    G7 G D  G
             All my love's in vain
