on the Manchester Express train

when an old man came and sat
down
D
who was obviously insane.
A
Bm
He was talking to himself
G

in a very funny way
G
Bm
and all the other people, one by one,
F#m
G
A
D
decided not to stay till eventually just
G
D
A
he and I were sitting all alone
D
G
Because I was interested in
A
what he had to say
D
when, on his own, he said,
What's it all about?
A
D
I often wonder.
A
G
A
D
And why on earth is everybody here?
A
D
Sometimes pressure is enough
A
D
to drive me under.
A
G
A
And like everyone, I'm so afraid of fear.
Bm
G
All the world is getting hotter,
A
oh it's much too much to stand,
D
that's why
G
I'm such a very,
A
D
very melancholy man.
G
The conductor came for tickets,
D
A
but he didn't stay too long,

Bm
complained about the cold,

D
There's a difference
