Repeat as necessary...

C
 The feeling's not the same

              Am
 in fact it's getting pretty tame

F                            Bb      G
 it's just not that great anymore

   C
 I guess I'll go outside

            Am
 and flag a weasel for a ride

F                        Bb     G
 'take it on down to the shore

 C
 Wallowing in fear

              Am
 the days and weeks that you're not here

F                          Bb    G
 is all the waiting in vain

     C
 The day that you arrived

             Am
 my sleeping monkey is revived

F                            Bb           G
 but you sent him home on the train...



[Chorus]

 C
 Home on the train

                                 G
 why'd you send my monkey on the train?

     C
 The day that you arrived

             F
 my sleeping monkey is revived

     C            G           C
 but you sent him home on the train.
