D* Cadd9 C* Said I hear the whistle blowing D Gotta catch it the train is rolling And she said D* Cadd9 I ain't never been to New York City C* D I ain't seen the San Francisco Bay D* Cadd9 I ain't never tried my hand in Vegas C* D I never seen the L.A lights shine bright G Bright, brighter than your smile was ever Cadd9 Brighter than my desire was ever C* D Longer burning than our love was ever...ohhhhh CHORUS
