[Intro]
Dm Bb Dm F
F C

[Verse 1]
            F       C
There was a train leavin'
       G
for a big beat
           F
in a big life
              F
Are you comin'?
I may have asked
             C
 you once or twice

[Chorus]
Dm
  But I'd already left
            Bb
the hallway  with
 broken lights
Dm
  Some dingy landin'
                   F
 we used to tumble from
Dm
  Where the stairs were
            F
 cracked and worn,
whatever
Watch me go, babe,
          C
watch me gone

[Verse 2]
F                   C
 And the songs were pushin'
 G              F
 harder all the time
F
Wasn't your fault,
                      C
then again it wasn't mine
Dm                 Bb
  Broke, frustrated, and
 obsessed
Dm
  You saw me as ridiculous,
   F
I guess
             F
And I didn't know
      C
from nothing
G               F
Not even my own voice
But I knew there
     F
was something
And I knew there
        C
 was no choice

[Chorus]
Dm
  I was leavin',
mostly heartache
         Bb
But I was in no mood
 to rejoice
Dm
  There was so much
          F
that was wrong, whatever
Watch me go, babe,
          C
watch me gone
(Watch me go, babe,
           F
watch me gone)

Watch me go, babe
        C
  watch me gone
(Watch me go, babe,
          F     C
 watch me gone)

Dm Bb Dm F
F C

[Verse 3]
                F
Well, maybe I'll hit
               C
the road with Bob
   G
Or maybe hitch a
           F
 ride with Van
     F
It's all gonna happen
                        C
And I'll be a happening man
Dm
  And God must still be
         Bb
laughing  at a boy
and his plans
Dm
  In the streets where
         F
 they were born
F                  C
 And the hopscotch traces,
                G
 well, you can still see
      F
 'em here
    F
The chalk lines faded
            C
 and unclear

[Chorus]
Dm              Bb
  Time for me to  disappear
Dm                    F
  Put my old boots back on,
 whatever

Watch me go, babe,
          C
 watch me gone

(Watch me go, babe,
           F
 watch me gone)
Watch me go, babe,
          C
watch me gone
(Watch me go, babe,
           F
 watch me gone)
Watch me go, babe,
          C
watch me gone
(Watch me go, babe,
           F
watch me gone)
Watch me go, babe,
        C
watch me gone
(Watch me go, babe,
          F
watch me gone)
