Beggar’s blues  

E                             D               E 
Night train, silver moon, you ask me why, I'm flying 
To float on ashen wings to choke on dust and feather 
  D                 E          D                  E 
I learned you are a liar, it's right we should pretend 
    D              E           D                  E 
And lie with one another, it's right we should be twins 
    D               E 
For I have loved no other 

E                      D            A                      E 
Look for me baby, well I'm draggin' lonliness and it's ten miles long 
E                                        D                      A             E 
I thought I heard you scream baby in the wheels of a train that crawls when I don't wanna go 
             D               A       E 
Cause you forget me when I'm gone, whoa 

Look for me baby, whenever ice is glistening upon the glass 
D'ya ever find your dream baby, well God knows I never hear mine close enough 
I watched 'em slip away like this, whoa 

               A               D                        A 
I've been from one end of this street to the other, now I want the gifts ya promised me lover 

Look for me baby, crow fly by with sister and brother, deadly as a kiss, a sin to one another 
Look for me baby, well I'm draggin' lonliness and it's ten miles long 
I thought I heard you scream baby, in the wheels of a train that crawls and I don't wanna go 
Cause you forget me when I'm gone, whoa 

Night train, silver moon, you ask me why am I flyin' 
To float on ashen wings to choke on dust and feather 
My dreams will go no further, won't calm my violent river 
Oh guardian of peace, let the beggar walk in the winter 
Look for me baby 
Look for me baby 
Look for me baby 
Look for me baby 
that's all
