Chord/Tab song: Kings Cross Blues

CAPO: 2nd Fret


[INTRO (fade in):] C

[VERSE 1:]

Early train starts on time
[G]Everybody else is feeling fine

Reading the papers and studying the form
And the [F]people just taking this as [C]norm

[VERSE 2:]
Except[G] me
[F]I don't seem to function 'til at least a quarter-to-[C]three
Stare at the [G]floor
[F]I don't want to take this Kings Cross train no [C]more


[VERSE 3:]

I'm drinking whiskey at the bar
[G]Can't afford the dining car

Ruddy faced soldiers drink and curse
[F]Find themselves out if it gets much [C]worse

[VERSE 4:]
Grates on [G]me
'Cause [F]I don't even share the same philoso[C]phy
Leaving the [G]bar
Well, I [F]wish that Kings Cross station didn't have to be so [C]far

[VERSE 5:]

Well, taking this journey to the South
[G]To find work to feed the extra mouth

Find it hard, I to have to say
'Cause [F]they don't talk the same [C]way

[VERSE 6:]
Grates on[G] me
Well, [F]I don't even share the same philoso[C]phy
Leaving the [G]bar
Oh, [F]wish that Kings Cross station didn't have to be so [C]far
