Lyrics and Chords
[ Fm6 = 
; Capo 3]
Intro: / C G Em7 F / /
It was late in December, the sky turned to snow
All 'round the day was going down slow
Night, like a river, beginning to flow
I felt the beat of my mind go drifting into
/ C G Em F / - G AmG F / :
Time passages
Years go falling in the fading light
Time passages
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight
/ C G Em F / C G Am D / 1st / F - Em G / Intro /
Well, I'm not the kind to live in the past
The years run too short and the days too fast
The things you lean on are things that don't last
Well it's just now and then my line gets cast into these
Time passages
There's something back there that you left behind
Time passages
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight
Hear the echoes and feel yourself starting to turn
Don't know why you should feel that there's something to learn
It's just a game that you play
/ G# - Fm6 - C - - - / G# - Fm6 - Am - / D - / Intro /
Well, the picture is changing, now you're part of a crowd
They're laughing at something, the music's loud
A girl comes toward you you once used to know
You reach out your hand, but you're all alone in those
Time passages
I know you're in there, you're just out of sight
Time passages
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight
