Verse 1
Am
This
window makes a perfect frame
For
New
England views like painted rain
Dm
They hold me as I hold this train,
Am
all shadows on a dime
F
Am
You move forward fast by holding back
You gauge your steps
and you don't look slack
Dm
Yeah, I'm looking backward
To see us dreamers in our prime
E
Am
I poured my soul in
Santa
Cruz
Am
next day I lost my shoes
Dm
what you may or may not lose
E
Am
In this pattern we call time
Fifteen years ago I worked the line
With a thousand more all due in time
Dm
While a foreman smiled, complicit crime
Am
F
We were strangers to the plan
Am
An old, old woman ran the gear
She couldn't mow
They said she'd been there 40 years,
Am
Cause 40 years is 40 years,
and I was only 15 then
E
Am
An d we gauged our steps and
And one day the old wo
Dm
man didn't come back
Am
well and they let me go
E
Am
But I don't forget about the factory
E
Am
I don't expect this ride to always be
F
Dm
Can I give you what you'll want to see?
E
Am
Will we do it one more time?
Ten years have worn this guitar down
Its ivory whites are now mustard brown
Dm
Am
Its face bears cracks from every town
F
Still it resonates with age
Am
Where would I be without its ring?
Who would I be if I didn't sing?
Dm
Am
For half a chance you spare nothing
A tethered bird to a tethered cage
E
Am
I sing to you to feel the dream
E
Am
I call to you though it's
a muted scream
F
We're one -on -one projected

E
Am
Translucent future, be our sage
5 years have played since
she warmed my side
She is my gift, I've loved and cried
Dm
With her level look, she is my guide
Am
F
A spirit on the way
Am
Our love has jostled like this train
Or like the moon to wax and wane
Dm
Am
But to know somebody worth the strain,
I have one gift to bring
E
Am
I cried for her then I let her down
F
Dm
And I felt us two and I felt the ground
E
Am
And I felt myself believing

Dm
Am
And now a tired conductor passes by
He takes my ticket with a sigh
Dm
Am
I don't think he meant to catch my eye,
but he doesn't turn away
Am
I have a daughter as old as you
And there's really nothing
anyone else can do
Am
Well, good for you, may I play the violin?
E
Am
I imagine him with his hair jet black
E
Am
Does he hide his fiddle in the back?
F
He gauged his words as the

York train stops here

And I don't forget about the factory

Am
I don't expect this ride to always be
F
Dm
Can I give them what they want to see?
Am
the second time for me
Cause these windows make
a perfect frame
Where
New
York buildings like upright trains
Dm
Am
They hold me as I hold the rain

While shadows on a dime
