[VERSE 1]
Amelia, she worked for the [F] railroadx
[G] Doingx what, I never [C] knewx
But I’d meet her down at the [Dm] depotx
[G] Everyx day at half-past [C] twox

[VERSE 2]
And we climbed the old wood [F] stairwayx
[G] Findx the key below the [C] matx
Watch the sunset on the [Dm] freightx yard
[G]Upx at Amelia’s railroad [C] flatx

[VERSE 3]
Russian vodka in the [F] freezerx
[G] Fromx the Polish liquor [C] storex
Spanish rice, Moroccan [Dm] orangesx
[G] Persianx rugs upon the [C] floorx

[VERSE 4]
And Amelia came from [F] Denmarkx
[G] Shex bought a pair of Siamese [C] catsx
They’d wake us up there in the [Dm] morningx
[G] Atx Amelia’s railroad [C] flatx

[BRIDGE]
And every [Am] nightx the midnight ghost rode out on [F] timex
[Am] Rollingx down the line at twelve-o-[F]ninex
And we’d [Am] sitx and count the cars out on the [F] trackx
As they [C] shookx the bedroom window of Amelia’s railroad [G] flatx

But the freight yards, they are [F] gonex now
[G]Andx the buildings block the [C] sunx
And Amelia sailed for [Dm] Demarkx
[G] Wayx back in Nineteen Eighty-[C]Onex

[VERSE 6]
But every time I hear a [F] freightx train
Or [G] watchx the sunset on the [C] tracksx
Lord, I recall those summer [Dm] eveningsx
[G] Upx at Amelia’s railroad [C] flatx

[VERSE 7]
And every time I hear a [F] freightx train
[G]Blowingx lonely down the [C] trackx
I hear those bedroom windows [Dm] rattlex
[G] Upx at Amelia’s railroad [C] flatx
Lord, how those bedroom windows [Dm] rattledx
[G] Upx at Amelia’s railroad [C] flatx
