C
the feeling’s not the same

Am
in fact it’s getting pretty tame

F A# G
it’s just not that great anymore

C
i guess i’ll go outside

Am
and flag a weasel for a ride

F A# G
’take it on down to the shore

C
wallowing in fear

Am
the days and weeks that you’re not here

F A# G
is all the waiting in vain

C
the day that you arrived

Am
my sleeping monkey is revived

F A# G
but you sent him home on the train . . .

[ chorus ]

C
home on the train

G
why’d you send my monkey on the train?

the day that you arrived

F
my sleeping monkey is revived

C G C
but you sent him home on the train .
