Ab    Eb/G    Fm    Ebsus2    Db
Ab    Eb/G    Fm    Ebsus2    Db    C C7 C

       F
You may not believe it
                                       C/E  Dm           C/D Dm
But I don't believe in miracles anymore
       Gm
And when I think about it
  Gm/F                                  Csus4  C
I don't believe I ever did for sure
F
All the things I've said in songs
                     C/E          Dm                     C/D Dm
All the purple prose you bought from me
   Gm
Reality's just black and white
       Gm/F
The sentimental things I'd write
Csus4                                    C
Never meant that much to me

   Ab                                Eb/G
I used to be the main express
     Fm
All steam and whistles heading west
Bbm                                Bbm/Ab
Picking up my pain from door to door
F#
Riding on the storyline
Eb/G
Furnace burning overtime
Db                          Eb
But this train don't stop,
Ab            Eb/G Fm
This train don't stop,
Db/Bb               Eb                        Ab
This train don't stop there anymore

Eb/G    F    Esus2    Db    C C7 C

You don't need to hear it
But I'm dried up and sick to death of love
If you need to know it
I never really understood that stuff
All the stars and bleeding hearts
All the tears that welled up in my eyes
Never meant a thing to me
Read 'em as they say and weep
I've never felt enough to cry

Db
When I said that I don't care
   Ab/C                                  Bbm
It really means my engine's breaking down
       Bb/F
The chisel chips my heart again
       Bb
The granite cracks beneath my skin
  Db                           Eb
I crumble into pieces on the ground
