Adam Carroll - Rosemary's Song
C G D C
I'm on the worlds last steam train lookin out the window, watch another life go by
C G D Em
Got tongue tied, gun shy, standing in your doorway, trying not to say goodbye
Am C D
To the secrets in your bedroom that you told
Em C G
I want to press my silver cross against your gold
Passing through a ghost town lookin at the sun down, talking to the engineer
I want to back track time till the whistle stops blowing and the snow caps disappear
Cause baby all these empty box cars look the same to me
I want to get off of this god forsaken train
Chorus:
D
Well I'm thinking about you all the way from Brownsville to Laredo
C G
Bought a round trip ticket from Denver to Durango
Bm C G
Countin all the tracks till I get off the train
D
Somewhere the ghost of your warm love lies
C G
Between your long black hair and you pretty dark eyes
Bm C D
I hope it doesn't fade away like the frost on your window pane
Em C G
I want to come back to the roses in your name
Got me feelin kinda lovesick, lookin like a train wreck, listening to the engine moan
I'm lookin for a rainbow, waitin at the depot, standing by the telephone
I had my arms wrapped around almost all night long
I'd give a thousand hail marries to know what went wrong
Chorus:
D
Well I'm thinking about you all the way from Brownsville to Laredo
C G
Bought a round trip ticket from Denver to Durango
Bm C G
Countin all the tracks till I get off the train
D
Somewhere the ghost of your warm love lies
C G
Between your long black hair and you pretty dark eyes
Bm C D
I hope it doesn't fade away like the frost on your window pane
Em C G
I want to come back to the roses in your name
On the worlds last steam train lookin out the window, watch another life go bye
Got tongue tied gun shy standing in your doorway, trying not to say goodbye
To the secrets in your bedroom that you told
I want to press my silver cross against your gold
