First Train Home

C               Em
I've got to get on it.
C               G
I've got to get on it.
C               Em
I've got to get on it.

G                       C               Em              C
Bodies disengaged, our mouths are fleshing over.
G               C
Is this an echo game?
        Em              C
Irises retreating to ovals of white.
G                       C                               Em              C
The urge to feel your face, and blood rushing to paint my handprint.
G                       C               Em                              C
And Frisbee one by one; your vinyl on laminate, desperate for some kind of contact.

Chorus:
G
First train home, I've got to get on it.
C
First train home, I've got to get on it.
G
First train home, I've got to get on it.
C
To Catch, to catch, catch-catch, catch.
G
First train home, I've got to get on it.
C
First train home, I've got to get on it.
G
First train home, I've got to get on it.
C
First Train home

G               C                               Em              C
Temporal deadzone where clocks are barely breathing.
G                       C                           Em                  C
yet no one cares to notice for all the yelling, all night clamor to hold it together.
G                       C                            Em
I want to play--don't wait--forms in the hideaway
                C
I want to get on with getting on with things
G                   C                                           Em
I want to run in fields, paint the kitchen, and love someone
                C
And I can't do any of that here, can I?

G
First train home, I've got to get on it.
C
First train home, I've got to get on it.
G
First train home, I've got to get on it.
C
First Train home.

G           C                           Em              C
So what? You've had one too many.
        G               C               Em      C
So what? I'm not that much fun to be with.
G            C                  Em              C
So what? You've got a silly hat on.
   Em           C                               Em
So what? I didn't want to come here, anyway.

G                               C                       G
What matters you, doesn't matter, matter to me.
G                               C                       G
What matters to me, doesn't matter, matter to you.
G                               C                       G
What matters to you, doesn't matter, matter to them.
G                       C               D               G
What matters to them, doesn't change anything.

C               Em
Got to get on it.
C
First train home.
C               Em
Got to get on it.
C
First train home.
G
First train home I've got to get on it
(I've got to get on it)
C
To catch, to catch, catch-catch, catch.
(First train home)
G               C
First train home I've got to get on it
G               C
First train home.
(First train home)
G                                                       C                                    
Got to, Got to, Got to, Got to, Get, Get, Get, Get, Out, Out, Out, Out, Now, Now, Now, Now.
   G
