Now you just told me that you’re leaving
                         D
On the next train coming down

I love you dear but I won’t follow
  G    D     G
I just think I’ll stay around

Chorus

For I know someday you’ll want me
                             D
When your true love can’t be found

I just think I’ll stay around

I just think I’ll stay around

        G
Someday you’ll hear that whistle blowing
                      D
On the special coming down

You’ll be looking for me baby
    G D   G
But I may not be around
