whoooo, whoooo,Now the night train is waitin’, to take me away,
And I'm still feelin' guilty 'cause you're wanted me to sta-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-ay.
Well I know, how I know, it’s harder on you,
But then you said it yourself there’s nothing else we could do.
When the wheels start turnin’, takin’ me through the night,
Out there in the darkness there's a star shinin' bri-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ght.
And it makes me feel better, just to see it up there,
Hope you’re thinkin’ about it, hope you know I still care.
So goodnight, yeah goodnight,
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.
So goodnight, yeah goodnight,
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.
Now I know you’ve been waiting, but I’ll be seeing you soon,
Meanwhile I just lay here and stare at the moo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-n.
And a light made of silver, through my window it creeps,
And the train keeps on rollin’ it just rocks me to sleep.
So goodnight, yeah goodnight,
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.
So goodnight, yeah goodnight,
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.
[Interlude]
verse chords
So goodnight, yeah goodnight,
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.
So goodnight, yeah goodnight,
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.
Now from city to city, it’s four hundred miles,
And I'm bound to wake up every once in a whi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-le.
And it’s then that I call out, to some higher power,
And then I’ll go back to sleep, ’cause I’ll be home in an hour.
[Chorus 2]
(x2)
So goodnight, (goodnight) yeah goodnight, (goodnight)
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home. (goodnight)
So goodnight, (goodnight) yeah goodnight, (goodnight)
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home. (goodnight)
I’m going home (ooooh) tonight. [repeat & fade]
