I absolutely love this song. I noticed the chords weren't up, so I put a rough copy of
the chords. It's in B major and I may have made some mistakes. But have fun playing Steel Train.
Intro: B E F# x2
B
I fell in love in the back seat of your car
E
The road was shorter than it looked
F#
Like ten years and two more
B
And I held the girl closer than was safe
E
Take what you want from me
F#
I'm not afraid to turn around
B F# E F#
To see you by my side
B F# E F#
Hey, I felt pretty when they turned out the lights
B F# E F#
I didn't know just what was going on
B F# E F#
When all my guts were telling me to run
B F# E F#
I stuck around when I should have been there with you
B F# E F#
Now after all that we lost
E
I swear I'll never let go
E F#
You and I both are nothing but thieves
B G#m
We take what we want when we need
E F#
I had a chance for a better life
B G#m
But all that I've known is to
E F#
Run, run, run, from a devil in disguise
B G#m
Like a bullet, a bullet, a bullet into the night
E
We are the last generation of hope
And I wouldn't mind if
F#
Together we died alone
B
I was 21 when I lost control
E
I took my hands off the wheel
F#
Wheel it spun on its own
B
And I lost so much of what I loved
E
Take what you want from me
F#
I'm not afraid to turn around
B F# E F#
To see you by my side
B F# E F#
I felt pretty when they turned out the lights
B F# E F#
I didn't know just what was going on
B F# E F#
When all my guts were telling me to run
B F# E F#
I stuck around when I should have been there with you
B F#
Now after all that we lost
E
I swear I'll never let go
E F#
You and I both are nothing but thieves
B G#m
We take what we want when we need
E F#
I had a chance for a better life
B G#m
But all that I've known is to
E F#
Run, run, run, from the devil in disguise
B G#m
Like a bullet, a bullet, a bullet into the night
E
We are the last generation of hope
F#
And I wouldn't mind if
B
Together we died alone
(E F# G# A# B E) B
I said, "As long as you're here then, together I can die alone."
