Verse 1
Well I followed her to the station
with a suitcase in my hand
Yeah I followed her to the station
with a suitcase in my hand
Instrumental break
Well it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell
when all your love's in vain
Verse 2
When the train come in the station
I looked her in the eye
Well the train come in the station
and I looked her in the eye
Instrumental break
Whoa I felt so sad so lonesome
that I could not help but cry
(There is usually a mandolin in this part, so you can either go right into verse 3 or
a little something of your own to fill the song out)
Verse 3
When the train left the station
it had two lights on behind
Yeah, when the train left the station
it had two lights on behind
Instrumental break
Whoa the blue light was my baby
when all your love's in vain G
Well I followed her to the station
with a suitcase in my hand
Yeah I followed her to the station
with a suitcase in my hand
Instrumental break
Well it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell
and the red light was my mind

Ooo
All my love's in vain
