Verse 1
C F Bb F Across the railroad tracks, down the gravel road C Dm C Bb headlights throw a beam on the way back home. C F Bb F Lie down, lie down, listen wide awake C F Bb To the trains that roll, to the sound time makes.
Verse 2
C F Bb F It passes through the air like a summer storm C Dm C Bb Catching on my sleeve like a rose's thorn. C F Bb F Sometimes it whispers, sometimes it roars C F Bb Flies like the wind, waits by the door.
Refrain
F Bb F Dm F And I know you know and that’s all I need Bb F Am When the light of day looks like night to me Bb F Dm F When you’re far away and I’m all alone Bb F C F I can’t explain, I know you know.

Verse 3
C F Bb F It fills up my chest, it fills up my eyes C Dm C Bb like an old glass jar filled with fireflies. C F Bb F Sometimes I’m still, sometimes I sigh C F Bb Sometimes I’m lost and I don’t know why
Refrain
F Bb F Dm F But I know you know and that’s all I need Bb F Am When the light of day looks like night to me. Bb F Dm F When you’re far away and I’m all alone Bb F C F I can’t explain, I know you know.

Verse 4
C F Bb F In the morning light, before the heat sets in C Dm C Bb Call the dogs to run where the shade has been. C F Bb F Across the railroad tracks lay your silver down C F Bb Find it smooth and flat, stars for your crown.
Verse 5
C F Bb F In the blue distance where our lives unfurl C Dm C Bb The edges of the sky, the beauty of the world.
Refrain
F Bb F Dm F But I know you know and that’s all I need Bb F Am When the light of day looks like night to me. Bb F Dm F When you’re far away and I’m all alone Bb F C F I can’t explain, I know you know.
