Intro : A D
A
Waitin for the train to come
D
I keep waitin for the train to come
A
Dreaming of the river and the rising sun
D
I keep thinkin bout the world to come
F#m7
My life, packed up in a suitcase
D
Old man, staring from the doorway
F#m7
My hope tarries in the distance
D E
Love comes on the wheels of my deliverance
A D
Oh Whoa Whoa, where is the river unbroken
A D
Oh Whoa Whoa, when will the whistle blow
A
Waitin for the train to come
D
I keep waitin for the train to come
A
Keepin my appointment with the One who lives
D
In the heart of everything that is
F#m7
All night, sleeping at the station
D
Dear God, it's hard not to be impatient
F#m7
I watch the windows of forgiveness
D E
I cry and my word's my only witness
A D
Oh Whoa Whoa, where is the river unbroken
A D
Oh Whoa Whoa, when will the whistle blow
A D
Oh Whoa Whoa, where is the river unbroken
A D
Oh Whoa Whoa, when will the whistle blow
G
Sometimes I feel I can't go on
A
I get so tired all passion's gone
G
My head, my heart, my arms, my legs
A
Without the strength to crawl away
G A
Then something breaks inside my soul
That spirit finally taking hold
G A
My ears can hear, my eyes can see
E
Those clouds that cover me. Singing
A D
Oh Oh Mmmm
A D
Tell me, where is the river unbroken
A D
Oh Whoa Whoa, where is the river unbroken
A D
Oh Whoa Whoa, when will the whistle blow
(repeat and fade)
