[Verse 1]
        Bb
Oh, the evening train is rolling
     Eb
All along the homeward way
       Bb
All my hopes are over the horizon
       Bb          F      Bb
All my dreams have gone away [?]
    Bb
The hillside darkly shaded
Eb
Stars fall from above
        Bb
All the joys of earth have faded
    Bb       F          Bb
The nights untouched by love
     Eb
I’ll be here ’til tomorrow
  Bb
Beneath a shroud of gray
        Eb
I’ll pretend I’m free from sorrow
   Bb              F
My heart is miles away
Bb
 The dead bells are ringing
   Eb
My train is overdue
        Bb
To your memory I’m clinging
  Bb      F         Bb
I can’t escape from you

[Interlude]
| F | Eb | Dm |

[Verse 2]
       Bb
Well I hear the sound of thunder
Eb
Roaring loud and long
    Bb
Sometimes you’ve got to wonder
    Bb         F       Bb
God knows I’ve done no wrong
       Bb
You’ve wasted all your power
          Eb
You threw out the Christmas pie
        Bb
Now you wither like a flower
       Bb       F        Bb
You'll play the fool and die
    Eb
I’m neither sad nor sorry
    Bb
I’m all dressed up in black
  Eb
I fought for fame and glory
    Bb/F              F
You tried to break my back
       Bb
In the far-off sweet forever
    Eb
The sunshine breaking through
   Bb
We should have walked together
  Bb      F         Bb
I can’t escape from you

[Interlude]
| F | Eb | Dm |

[Verse 3]
  Bb
I cannot grasp the shadows
     Eb
That gather near the door
Bb
Rain fall ’round my window
  Bb       F        Bb
I wish I’d seen you more
    Bb                    Bb7
The path is ever winding
    Eb
The stars they never age
    Bb
The morning light is blinding
Bb      F         Bb
All the world’s a stage
       Eb
Should be the time of gladness
      Bb
Happy faces everywhere
        Eb
But the mystery of madness
        Bb            F
Is propagating in the air
Bb
I don’t like the city
Eb
Not like some folks do
Bb
Isn’t it a pity
  Bb      F         Bb
I can’t escape from you

[Interlude]
| F | Eb | Dm |

[Verse 4]
   Bb                   Bb7
We plough the fields of heaven
Eb         Ab     Eb
Right down to the end
  Bb
I hope I can be forgiven
       Bb       F      Bb    Eb
If any words of mine offend
        Bb
All our days were splendid
          Eb
They were simple, they were plain
   Bb
It never should have ended
              Bb         F      Bb
I should have kissed you in the rain
          Eb
I’ve been thinking things all over
        Bb                      Bb7
All the moments full of grace
    Eb
The primrose and the clover
     Bb            F
Your ever-changing face
Bb
Can’t help looking at ya
         Eb
You made love with God knows who
      Bb
Never found a gal to match ya
  Bb      F         Bb
I can't escape from you
