Full Song
Verse 1
D
Waiting on a Sunday afternoon
A
For what I read between the lines
G
Your lies
D
Feelin’ like a hand in rusted shame
A
So do you laugh or does it cry?
G
Re-ply
Chorus
D
Leavin’ on a southern train
A
Only yesterday you lied
G
Promises of what I seemed to be
D
Only watchin’ you
A
Watchin’ me
G
Fall apart
Verse 2
D
Whispered in a southern accent
A
I was there, I can’t forget
G
No, I won’t
D
Breathin’ in a foreign nicotine
A
She was there and I was clean
G
No, I won’t
Chorus
D
Leavin’ on a southern train
A
Only yesterday you lied
G
Promises of what I seemed to be
D
Only watchin’ you
A
Watchin’ me
G
Fall apart
Bridge
D
Feelin’ uninspired
A
Think I’ll start a fire
G
Everybody’s hangin’ out
D
Breakin’ and a-tremblin’
A
Shakin’ and a-screamin’
G
Everybody’s hangin’ out
Chorus
D
Leavin’ on a southern train
A
Only yesterday you lied
G
Promises of what I seemed to be
D
Only watchin’ you
A
Watchin’ me
G
Fall apart
