Verse 1
(G major) I see the brake man
on a (C major) diesel power train
Stop a (A minor) hundred tons of rolling steel
in (D major) the pouring rain
(E minor) And I see a mother with a
(A minor) child waiting in vain
For a (C major) husband who's in the arm
but (D major) won't be home again
(G major) Tears go by, (D major) (G major) down her (C major) cheeks they flow
Now she's (D major) dreaming
about Canada (C major) on railroad (G major)
I see the lights flicker
from the (C major) loft across the way
It makes me (A minor) think of Louise
and the (D major) words that she might say
To a (E minor) man as he sets out
for (A minor) his working day
I (C major) love you, my dear,
in (D major) each and every way
As he (G major) kisses her,
he picks up his lunchbox
(C major) Then he turns to go
He (D major) walks out on (C major) Canterbury Road (G major)
(C major) (A minor)
(D major) (G major) (C major) (D major) (C major)
(G major)
There was a plantation house
Stood (C major) in this place before I (A minor) read
that you got torn down after (D major) the Civil War
You can (E minor) still hear ghosts cry
from a (A minor) centuries -old night
You can (C major) still see them walking
down the railroad tracks
in the (D major) broad daylight
Now (G major) this here life can be a (C major) very cruel show
I see him (D major) hanging out down
on (C major) Canterbury Road (G major)
A sister unexpectedly left (C major) a year ago
Get (A minor) off on angel's wings,
(D major) there I know I've (E minor) ever loved her,
and (A minor) it's still love her so
They're (C major) all gonna be reunited one day
in (D major) the eternal blue
Time (G major) don't lie, it don't (C major) wait,
you know
She's (D major) looking down on
(C major) Canterbury Road (G major)
Yeah, she's (D major) looking down
on (C major) Canterbury Road (G major)
you
