Lightning Express
Billie Joe Armstrong
G
C G A D7 G D7 G The lightning express from the depot so grand C G Had started out on its way All of the passengers that were on board A D7 Seemed to be happy and gay G But one little boy who sat by himself C G Was reading a letter he had C G You could plainly tell by the look on his face A D7 G That the contents of it made him sad G The stern old conductor then started his round C G Taking tickets from everyone there And finally reaching the side of the boy A D7 He gruffly demanded his fare G "I have no ticket" the boy then replied C G "But I'll pay you back someday" C G "Then I'll put you off at the next stop we make" A D7 G But he stopped when he heard the boy say G "Please Mr. Conductor C G Don't put me off of this train The best friend I have in this world sir A D7 Is waiting for me in pain G Expecting to die any moment sir C G And may not live through the day C G I wanna reach home and kiss mother goodbye A D7 G Before God takes her away." C G A D7 G D7 G A girl sitting near was heard to exclaim C G "If you put him off, it's a shame." Taking his hand, a collection she made A D7 The boy's way was paid on the train G "I'm obliged to you miss for your kindness to me." C G "You're welcome," she said, "never fear." C G Each time the conductor would pass through the car A D7 G The boy's words would ring in his ear G "Please Mr. Conductor C G Don't put me off of this train The best friend I have in this world sir A D7 Is waiting for me in pain G Expecting to die any moment sir C G And may not live through the day C G I wanna reach home and kiss mother goodbye A D7 G Before God takes her away." Outro: C G "I wanna reach home and kiss mother goodbye A D7 G Before God takes her away."
