[Chorus]
A E F#m
Sundown, it feels like I'm riding a train I'm not on
A E F#m
Sundown, it feels like I'm riding a train I'm not on
[Verse 1]
A E
We use to post up for days at this place in the flats
Bm D
And she'd stare off into space and draw smokestacks on her placemat
A E
She had a dwindling grace and a faith in the industry
F#m G
That never really made sense to me
A E
While we were combing the place trying to come up with the funds
Bm D
For some phone number friend in some idling car
A E
She said, "This probably isn't where I see myself forever
F#m G
But for now it's pretty much where we are"
A E
I never really argued with her basic observations
Bm D
Cause I wasn't super into confrontation back then
A E
I was mostly just about sitting by the window
F#m G
Watching the flag in the front just twisting and twisting and twisting
A E
We map where we've been by the scars on our skin
Bm D
We can only sing the songs we've been taught to
A E
Rachel always recommended messing with the settings
F#m G
She said it's better than settling for whatever they give you
[Chorus]
A E F#m
Sundown, it feels like I'm riding a train I'm not on
A E F#m
Sundown, it feels like I'm riding a train I'm not on
[Verse 2]
A E
Rachel was practical, she always carried matches
Bm D
She said she didn't have habits, they're rituals
A E
She threw salt over her shoulder when they rang for last orders
F#m G
She held her breath when she got up from the table
A E
It never really mattered that she was twelve years older
Bm D
Except for when we talked about the 1980s
A E
Cause I was still showing up to Modern European History
F#m G
While she was trying to hold on to her baby
A E
She started out teasing me, calling me her partner in crime
Bm D
Cause neither one of us were supposed to be in the taverns
