once I knew a railway girl
G

Her age was 17
G

I gave her all I had to give,
G

But the baggage of my dreams
G
F

Stole me from the games we played
G
F
C
And if she's gone she lingers on
F

Twas on a dark March evening
South- bound I did ride
C
G

My head was out the window when
G

I found her at my side
G
F
Asked where I was goin' to
G
C
G
F
I told but where I came
C

For the jails in which I've done my time
C
G

I fail hard to regain
G
F

Dark girl, dark girl it kills me so
C

To watch you so afraid
C

And realness should be paid

Her eyes gone wide, alive she cried

I held my breath and ap peared to weep
A

At the fragments of my brain
A
G
D
See each day's but a mo ment lad
I fail hard to regain
A
G
D
But as it goes the fiddler throws
A

Our values to the street
G

sayings as gay as
A
G
Impatience in his field
D
A

And captives of this Wall Street trade
D

Forgive us though we all must go

And where to please don't ask

And now I am a misspent man
G

Who knows not where he's been
F

sufferin'
F

Renounce myself for further wealth
C
G
F
I take each breath in vain
C
G
F
C
Still haunted by that railway girl
