VERSE:
F Am
On a train ride from some place bad
Bb C Am
To some place little better
F Am
In between my youth and manhood
Bb C Am
Was a place I met her
F Am
She was just a skinny brown eyed girl
Bb C Am
With a hunger for tomorrow
F Am
And I was then obese by pain.
Bb C Am
I had all that I could swallow.
CHORUS:
Bb F Dm
Oh, fair haired travelling girl
Bb Dm C Bb
Keep on travelling on on on
Bb F
Oh, fair haired travelling girl
Dm C Bb Bb F Bb C F
It's just the seat that you have is wrong
VERSE:
F Am
Her eyes were packing passed regrets.
Bb C Am
In her lips there was redemption
F Am
And she mistook my coat for love.
Bb C Am
As she wore it for affection
F Am
And as she took the seat beside me.
Bb C Am
I inhaled all of her laughter
F Am
And she forgot there is a past.
Bb C Am
While I forgot there is an after.
CHORUS:
Bb F Dm
Oh, fair haired travelling girl
Bb Dm C Bb
Keep on travelling on on on
Bb F
Oh, fair haired travelling girl
Dm C Bb Bb F Bb C F
It's just the seat that you have is wrong

VERSE:
F Am
On a train ride from some place gone.
Bb C Am
To some place almost certain
F Am
In between my flesh and bone.
Bb C Am
Was the place I met her
F Am
Her wrapped up in my coat of shame.
Bb C Am
She laid there sleeping tightly
F Am
And as the train pulled to another stop.
Bb C Am
I left and I knew she'd go on without me.
CHORUS:
Bb F Dm
Oh, fair haired travelling girl
Bb Dm C Bb
Keep on travelling on on on
Bb F
Oh, fair haired travelling girl
Dm C Bb
It's just the seat that you have is wrong

It's just the seat that you have was wrong

That's all
