Ocean Colour Scene-Day We Caught The Train

[Verse - No drums - BPM 88] 
[Em] I never saw it as the [D] start,
It's more a [G] change of heart (bass drum in)
[F] Rapping on the windows, whistling down the chimney [E] pot
[G] Blowing up the dust in the room where I for [D] got
[C] laid my plans in [B] solid rock
(snare lightly in) 
[Em] Stepping through the door
Like a troubadour whiling just an [A] hour away,
[Em] Looking at the trees on the roadside feeling it's a [A] holiday
 
[Chorus - Backward drums] 
[D] You and I should [A#dim7-x12020] ride the coast
And [Bm] wind up in our [A/C#-x4222x] favourite coats just [Em] miles away.
[G] Roll a number ........ write another song
Like [A] Jimmy heard the day he caught the train.
 
[Post-Chorus - Full drums] 
[D] Wo [A] wo la la
[G] Wo [Em7] wo la la
[D] Wo [A] wo la la
[G] Wo [Em7] wo laaa (drums stop)
 
[Verse] 
[Em] He sipped another rum and [D] coke and told a [G] dirty joke (drums back in)
[F] Walking like Groucho sucking on a number [E] 10
[G] Rolling on the floor with the cigarette burns walked [D] in
I'll [C] miss the crush and I'm [B] home again
 
[Em] Stepping through the door
With the night in store whiling just an [A] hour away,
[Em] Step into the sky in the star bright feeling it's a [A] brighter day.
 
[Chorus - Backward drums] 
[D] You and I should [A#dim7-x12020] ride the coast
And [Bm] wind up in our [A/C#-x4222x] favourite coats just [Em] miles away.
[G] Roll a number ........ write another song
Like [A] Jimmy heard the day he caught the train.

[G] Wo [Em7] wo la la
[D] Wo [A] wo la la
[G] Wo [Em7] wo laaa
 
[Bridge - run1 E 3 2 0 A 2 D 2] 
[A] You and I should ride the tracks
And find ourselves just wading through to [D] morrow
[A] And you and I when we're coming down
 
We're only getting back
And you know I feel no [D] sorrow. [A] [G(run1)] [Em]

[G] Wo [Em7] wo la la
[D] Wo [A] wo la la
[G] Wo [Em7] wo laaa
 
[Bridge] 
[D] When you find that [A] things are getting wild
[G] Don't you want days like [Em7] these? (big fill) 
[D] When you find that [A] things are getting wild
