[Verse]
D
I'm just a penny on the train track
G D
Waiting for my judgment day
D
Come on baby girl, let see me those legs
G D
Before I get flattened away
D A
I wait, yeah I wait
G D
For something good, for something great
[Verse]
D
Stopping in somebody's old hometown
G D
Gotta get that midnight meal
D
If you can't get behind your own life
G D
Get behind the driving wheel
D A
And go, just go
G D
Find a place that you don't know
[Verse]
D
Ran into a friend just the other night
G D
Got a badge, he's a local cop
D
Haven't seen that boy in over seven years
G D
Since outta high school I dropped
D A
I see, I see
G D
All the things that I should be
[Verse]
D
Even lucky man has a bad day
G D
And pretty girl has a scar
D
After that train comes and takes me away
G D
Pick up that guitar
D A
And play, just play
G D
Play that rock and roll for me
[Verse]
D
He's in the yard just washin' his car
G D
Thinking about his pretty wife
D
Makin' lemonade with the kitchen aid
G D
Makin' him a perfect life
D A
And it's grim, so dim
G D
When you wish that you were just like him
[Verse]
D
I'm just a penny on the train track
G D
Waiting for my judgment day
D
Come on baby girl, let me see those legs
G D
Before I get flattened away
D A
I wait, yeah I wait
G D
For something good, for something great
[Outro]
D A
And I try, oh I try
G D
I can't stop, I don't know why
D
I'm just a penny on the train track
G D
Waiting for my judgment day
D
Come on baby girl, let see me those legs
G D
Before I get flattened away
D A
I wait, yeah I wait
G D
For something good, for something great
