Michelle Shocked, If Love Was A Train (1988)
^{Key: :[B] (w: Michelle Shocked)}

INTRO: [over VERSE]

VERSE 1:
[B7] If love was a train, I think I would ride a slow one
[E7] One that would ride thru the night, making [B7] every stop
If [F#7] love was a train, [E7] I would feel no pain
And I would never get [B7] off, no I'd never get off

VERSE 2:
[B7] If love was a train, I think I would ride me a long one
[E7] Hear me talking, I'm talking fifty boxcars [B7] long
[F#7] Aahh what's the use? Most trains [E7] these days
Ain't got no engine, much less no [B7] caboose

BRIDGE:
[B7] Woooo, Woooo; Woooo, Woooo
Woooo, [E7] Woooo, Woooo, [B7] Woooo
[F#7] Look out here she comes
[E7] look out there she goes [B7]

INSTRUMENTAL: [over VERSE]

VERSE 3:
[B7] If love was a train, I'd throw my body on her tracks
If [E7] love was a train, I'd throw my body right down on [B7] her tracks
If [F#7] love was a train, [E7] I would feel no pain
As she rolled right down [B7] my back

VERSE 4:
[B7] But love ain't no train, more like a broncin' bull
And the [E7] most you got's 15 seconds, in the saddle
And even if you [F#7] manage to ride, you are all [E7] shaken up inside
And it's gonna be a long time, before you ride [B7] that bull again
