lyrics

Misty Steam Train - Dan Frechette © 1991

C-Em-Am-Em-
F-Em-G-G

(C.) Listen (Em) to a story that was (Am) spoken long (Em)ago
(F) About a (Em) man who didn't (G) know what he was missing
(C.) He told the (Em) boy inside, (Am) "Please don't (Em) run and hide"
but he (F) forgot to tell the (Em) boy inside to (C.) listen

(Chorus)
(Am) Misty (F) steam train, (C.) where did you (G) go?
(Am) I hear your (F) somber whistle (G) crying
(Am) Misty (F) steam train, (C.) your fire is (Am) low
let the (F) midnight moon (G) shine upon your (C.) pain.

(C.) People (Em) said his life was (Am) walking out the (Em) door
(F) said the (Em) crazy side was (G) starting to show through
(C.) ever (Em) wonder why that (Am) person laughed at (Em) you for
when they (F) knew that the (Em) trick was on (C.) you?

(Chorus)

C-Em-Am-Em-F-Em-G-G
C-Em-Am-Em-F-Em-C-C

The (C.) boy (Em) stands inside a (Am) dimly darkened (Em) room
(F) with some (Em) matches that are (G) much to moist to light
(C.) what (Em) can a child in a (Am) man's body (Em) do
when he's (F) got no (Em) strength to (C.) fight?

(Chorus)

Bandcamp generously sends 85% of your support directly toward my humble living expenses.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏 ... more
