[Intro]
Bb F C F
Bb F Am Bb
[Verse 1]
Across the Crailroad Ftracks, down the Bbgravel Froad
headlights Cthrow a Dmbeam C on the Bbway back home.
Lie Cdown, lie Fdown, listen Bbwide aFwake
To the Ctrains that Froll, to the Bbsound time makes.
[Verse 2]
It pasCses through the Fair like a Bbsummer Fstorm
Catching Con my Dmsleeve C like a Bbrose's thorn.
SometCimes it Fwhispers, someBbtimes it Froars
CFlies like the Fwind, waits Bbby the door.
[Refrain]
And FI Bbknow you Fknow and that’s Dmall I Fneed
When the Bblight of Fday looks like Amnight to me
When you’re Bbfar aFway and I’m Dmall aFlone
I Bbcan’t expFlain, I Cknow you Fknow.
[Mid 8]
Bb F C F
Bb F Am Bb
[Verse 3]
It Cfills up my Fchest, it fills Bbup my Feyes
like an Cold glass Dmjar Cfilled with Bbfireflies.
SomeCtimes I’m Fstill, someBbtimes I Fsigh
SomeCtimes I’m Flost and I Bbdon’t know why
[Refrain]
But FI Bbknow you Fknow and that’s Dmall I Fneed
When the Bblight of Fday looks like Amnight to me.
When you’re Bbfar aFway and I’m Dmall aFlone
I Bbcan’t expFlain, I Cknow you Fknow.

[Verse 4]
In the Cmorning Flight, before the Bbheat sets Fin
Call the Cdogs to Dmrun Cwhere the Bbshade has been.
Across the Crailroad Ftracks lay your Bbsilver Fdown
Find it Csmooth and Fflat, stars Bbfor your crown.
[Verse 5]
In the Cblue Fdistance where our Bblives unFfurl
The Cedges of the Dmsky, C the beauty Bbof the world.
[Refrain]
But FI Bbknow you Fknow and that’s Dmall I Fneed
When the Bblight of Fday looks like Amnight to me.
When you’re Bbfar aFway and I’m Dmall aFlone
I Bbcan’t expFlain, I Cknow you Fknow.
