Vers 1 (0:17), Strum as intro, one line per measure:

Down around the corner

a half a mile from here

You see them old trains runnin'

and you watch them disappear

And next play this, listen to the song for strumming:

Verse 2 (0:43), Strum as intro, one line per measure:

You know I saw miss Lucy

down along the tracks

She lost her home and family

and she won't be comin' back

This part is the same as in verse 1:

Without love

where would you be now

Without loooooove

___________

Verse 3 (1:07), Strum like this, and then mute strings.

Try and make the last part, the G7 chord hit on 1.

Well	the Il	linois	Centra	l

and the Southern Central Freight

gotta keep on pushin' mama

'cause you know they're running late

And this is the same as before:

Without love

where would you be now

Without love

___________

C-part: Solo over verse 1 chords, different strumming (listen to song again)

___________

Verse 3 repeated:

Well the Illinois Central

and the Southern Central Freight

gotta keep on pushin' mama

'cause you know they're running late

Without love

where would you be now

Without love

1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

Where the pistons keep on charmin'

and the wheels go round' and round'

And the steel rails are cold and hard

for the miles they go around

And this part is as usual:

Without love

where would you be right now

And here stop playing at all:

Without love

where would you be now?
