The Day We Caught the Train - Ocean Colour Scene
Intro: (Single Strum)
Em D
I never saw it as the start,
G
It’s more a change of heart
Verse 1:
F E7
Rapping on the windows, whistling down the chimney pot
G D
Blowing up the dust in the room where I forgot
C B7
I laid my plans in solid rock
Em
Stepping through the door
A
Like a troubadour whiling just an hour away,
Em A
Looking at the trees on the roadside feeling it's a holiday
|[Chorus]
|D A
| You and I should ride the coast
| Bm A Em
|And wind up in our favourite coats just miles away.
|G
| Roll a number.... write another song
| A D
|Like Jimmy heard the day he caught the train.
|[Post-Chorus]
|D A G
| Wo wo la la la
| Em D
|Wo wo la la la
| A G
|Wo wo la la la
| Em
|Wo wo laaa
Verse 2:
Em D G
He sipped another rum and coke and told a dirty joke
F E7
Walking like Groucho sucking on a number 10
G D
Rolling on the floor with the cigarette burns walked in
C B7
I'll miss the crush and I'm home again
Em
Stepping through the door
A
With the night in store whiling just an hour away,
Em A
Step into the sky in the star bright feeling it’s a brighter day.
[Chorus] + [Post-Chorus]
Bridge:
A
You and I should ride the tracks
D
And find ourselves just wading through tomorrow
A
And you and I when we're coming down
We're only getting back
D
And you know I feel no sorrow.
|Post-Chorus:
|D A G
| Wo wo la la la
| Em D
|Wo wo la la la
| A G
|Wo wo la la la
| Em
|Wo wo laaa
|[Bridge x4]
|D A
| When you find that things are getting wild
|G Em7
| Don't you want days like these?
|[Post-Chorus]
|D A
| Wo wo la la
|G Em7
| Wo wo la la
|D A
| Wo wo la la
|G Em7
| Wo wo laaa
D
