Sent you a thousand words
D
but they only added up to nothing
Dsus
So I'm calling it back
D
to the... honour to hold me...


Dsus                          G A
do you have to be the rolling train
Dsus                          G A
do you have to be the wounded bird
Dsus                             G A
do you have to be the only voice I hear
G
crying in the wilderness

D
Wrote you a thousand songs
Dsus
and not one of them was for singing
D
Cause I get it all wrong
Dsus
Man I guess I really just should have been listening

Dsus                          G A
do you have to be the rolling train
Dsus                          G A
do you have to be the wounded bird
Dsus                              G A
do you have to be the only voice I hear

Dsus
I prayed to God they'd let me keep it, 
D
I prayed to God they'd take it away
Dsus
I prayed to God they'd let me have it
D
and save it for a rainy day

Dsus                          G A
