           Gm7
I was on a sleeper train
          Am7
Bound for anywhere
          Gm7
And I was gazin' out the window
     Am7
In a long stare
             Gm7
Watchin' the sage brush go by
      Am7
And a pink and yellow sky
Gm7
Thinkin' 'bout your eyes
        Am7
Feelin' good to be alive

      A#maj7      Gm7
I was dreamin' of you
        Am7
Feelin' lucky
      A#maj7      Gm7
I was dreamin' of you
        Am7   C#maj7
Feelin' lucky

Gm7
And I was watchin' the towns drift into view
Am7
Listenin' to my thoughts of you
Gm7
And the rhythm of the wheels
Am7
And the shadows on the hills
        Gm7
Leavin' one more life behind
Am7
Never knowin' what I'd find
Gm7
Such a distant great expanse
Am7
And the dust-devils, they dance

          Bmaj7       Gm7
And I was dreamin' of you
        Am7
Feelin' lucky
      A#maj7      Gm7
I was dreamin' of you
        Am7   C#maj7
Feelin' lucky

D#maj7                  Dm7
Abandon everything that went before
D#maj7                 Dm7
Ahead now lies another open door
D#maj7                  Dm7         Am7
Abandon everything that went before

           Gm7
I was on a sleeper train
          Am7
Bound for anywhere
          Gm7
And I was gazin' out the window
     Am7
In a long stare
             Gm7
Watchin' the sage brush go by
      Am7
And a pink and yellow sky
Gm7
Thinkin' 'bout your eyes
        Am7
Feelin' good to be alive

      A#maj7      Gm7
I was dreamin' of you
        Am7
Feelin' lucky
      A#maj7      Gm7
I was dreamin' of you
        Am7
Feelin' lucky
      A#maj7      Gm7
I was dreamin' of you
        Am7
Feelin' lucky
      A#maj7      Gm7
I was dreamin' of you
        Am7   C#maj7
Feelin' lucky

Gm7 Am7
       The train kept rollin'
