A
Lover please, please come back,
                            E
don't take the train comin' down the track.

Don't, please don't, don't leave me,
                  A
don't leave me in misery.


[Verse 1]
A
You would never hold me so near,
                E
you would never call me, dear.

Don't you know I'd die for you?
                        A
Now you're gone, that's what I'll do.


[Chorus]
A
Lover please, please come back,
                            E
don't take the train comin' down the track.

Don't, please don't, don't leave me,
                  A
don't leave me in misery.


[Verse 2] (Key change.)
Bb
All those stories, not too long,
                  F
about a love that went all wrong.

The girl left the boy, just as bad,
                Bb
Now she's gone, she's so sad.


[Chorus]
Bb
Lover please, please come back,
                            F
don't take the train comin' down the track.

Don't, please don't, don't leave me,
                  Bb
don't leave me in misery.


[Verse 3]
Bb
You would never hold me so near,
                F
you would never call me, dear.

Don't you know I'd die for you?
                        Bb
Now you're gone, that's what I'll do.


[Chorus]
Bb
Lover please, please come back,
                            F
don't take the train comin' down the track.

Don't, please don't, don't leave me,
                  Bb
don't leave me in misery.
