Intro: D Bm F#m D G Bm F#m A 

D                         Bm                   F#m  A
These are the words, that cry out of me in the night, 
D                           Bm                         F#m   F#
Like a buffalo herd, From a shotgun blast scattered in flight, 
        G                            D
I got a one track mind, going down a one train line, 
          A                           D   D7
Living on dreams half the time, going West.

        G                         D
I gotta pick up speed, jst to get what I need, 
               A                                D   A
The end of the line guaranteed, your love is my rest,

D                      Bm                     F#m  A
The coal catches fire, I'm down the wire in a flash, 
D                            Bm                           F#m   F#
That big old smoke stack, is belching out black smoke and ash, 
   G                        D
So sad to think of, hurting the one you love, 
                       A                        D
But surely that's what leaving does, you'd know best, 

        G                          D            
I gotta pick up speed, just to get what I need, 
               A                                D   A (pause)         D    A           
The end of the line guaranteed, your love is my rest, your love is my rest,

Break: D Bm F#m A6 Dmaj7 Bm E7 F#m F# G Dmaj7 F#m A D A

D                            Bm                        F#m  A
We pass through the land, of Custer's last stand and I grin, 
   D                 Bm                        F#m   F#
So this is where old Yellow Hair's ghost dance begins, 
   G                                    D               
I got the blood on my hands, can't even live where I stand, 
           A                        D      D7      
I'm just a traveling man, cursed or blessed, 

        G                          D           
I gotta pick up speed, just to get what I need, 
               A                                D   A  (pause)                        
The end of the line guaranteed, your love is my rest, 
A               D     (pause)         D   A E D
Your love is my rest, your love is my rest.
