Railroaded Chords & Lyrics - Matthew Ryan

Intro: [C] , [G] , [Am] , [F] (x2)

[VERSE 1]
Well I [C]smoked my throat out last night
Hoping you'd[G] call or just stop by
Now I'm[Am] wheezing like the Oakland sky
Feeling like the[F] rusted tracks
And for[C]gotten dreams of the old train l[G]ines

[CHORUS]
It's a p[F]erpetual stone in my shoe
One that I'll [C]always be [G]trying to shake[Am] loose
An [F]ache in my chest and a[C] thorn in my[Am] side
More than a[F] scratch beneath my skin
Somewhere be[C]tween the be[G]ginning and the[Am] end
I don't [F]feel a lot lately[C]
I don't [F]feel whole lately[C]
I don't [F]feel much lately [C]
But that's how I[Am] hide
That's how I[G] hide

Interlude: [C] , [G] , [Am] , [F]

[VERSE 2]
You wrote it[C] down not

To draw attention to yourself
You lit the[G] pilot just to blow it out
Here the [Am]conversation's always too loud
And we're as [F]pathetic as the [C]jumper
Who listens to the [G]crowd

[BRIDGE]
To say I [F]miss you wouldn't be enough
I feel like[C] Tom Waits [G]singing "Diamond[Am]s and Rust"
And I'm as[F] pathetic as a [C]junkie who know what he[G] does

[CHORUS]
It's a [F]perpetual stone in my shoe
One that I'll[C] always be[G] trying to shake[Am] loose
An [F]ache in my chest and a[C] thorn in my[Am] pride
More than a s[F]cratch beneath my skin
Somewhere b[C]etween the be[G]ginning and the[Am] end
I don't [F]feel a lot lately[C]
I don't [F]feel whole lately[C]
I don't [F]feel much lately [C]
Now that's how [Am]I hide
That's how I[G] hide

Outro: [C] , [G] , [Am] , [F] (x2)

End on C.
