G Dm F C G I often dream of trains when I'm alone G Dm F C G I ride on them into another zone Gm Bb I dream of them constantly Bb Eb Cm D7 Heading for paradise, or Basingstoke or Reading
Same pattern for the remaining verses:
I often dream of trains when I'm awake
They ride along beside a frozen lake
And there in the buffet car
I wait for eternity, or Basingstoke or Reading
I often dream of trains till it gets light
Summer turns to winter overnight
The leaves falls so suddenly
The sun sets at four o'clock, exactly what I'm dreading
I often dream of trains when I'm with you
I wonder if you dream about them too
Maybe we'll meet one night
Out in the corridor, I'm waiting for you baby...

Your mother is a journalist your father is a creep
They make it in your bedroom when they think you're fast asleep
The scenes that they're enacting now beside your little bed
Are never in your consciousness but always in your head
Baby it might sound dodgy now but it sounds great when you're dead
It sounds great when you're ...
Your sister is a butterfly your brother is a drunk
You gaze at him reclining in formaldehyde, a trunk
He lives and breathes on systems that nobody can supply
And you're immune to everything except the butterfly
Yeah...
Baby it might sound dodgy now but it sounds great when you're dead
It sounds great when you're dead
(Piano break)
Baby you're incredible I think that you're the most
I've searched around for everything like you from coast to coast
Your name engraved in diamonds written in my heart
We're at our most together when we're at our most apart
Mmm...
Baby it might sound dodgy now but it sounds great when you're dead
Baby it might sound dodgy now but baby let me assure you
It sounds great when you're dead

As for the next part, it's picked the same way in
the IODOT version, but strummed in most live versions
I've heard. The B is just X24442, at least at first.
All others as shown above...
A E B F#
Cause you're not there and
A E B F#
I don't care and
A E B
You're not there
The live versions I've heard pretty much end there, but at
the end of the IODOT version the guitar picks variations on B
for a while as the bass alternates between B and E. At the
end there's an overdubbed part that does a nice scale thing,
sorta like this:
-----2-----0----------------:-----2-----0-------------------
-----------------4-----2--0-:-----------------4-----2-0-----
---4-----4-----4-----4----4-:-------------------------4---4-

--------1-3:-3----------3-1:-1-0----------1-3:---------3---0------
-1:-1-3--------------------------3-1:-1-3--------------------3-1:-
And the part I refer to
below as A#-(A-G) is...
-----------------------
-----------------------
-------3-----3---------
-----3-----3-----3-----
---1-----0-------------
---------------3---1:--
F C D# A#
Oh Vera my sweet I would offer you some meat
F C A#-(A-G)
in exchange for a good loaf of wax...
F C A# D#
I would smear it on you and on all your apples too
F C A#-(A-G)
if I thought it would help you relax...
F C D# A#
But the bones in the ground well they never make a sound
F C A#-(A-G)
and the bones in the ground are all fine...
F C D# A#
And the bones in the air well they haven't got a care
C C A#-(A-G)
and the bones in the air are all mine...
The chords played by the
Overdubbed Rickenbacker
sound somewhat like these:
F: XX356X
C: XX555X
A#: XX333X
D#: XXX343
Or, instead of
the D#, sometimes
it's this bit:
--------6-------
----6--------6--
------7---------
--8--------8----
----------------
----------------
And the rest of it:
F C D# A#
Oh shiny Maureen won't you tell me where you've been
F C A#-(A-G)
and I'll work out where you should be now
F C A# D#
In a cluster of apes that do rub themselves with grapes
F C A#-(A-G)
you'll be tied to the back of a cow
But the bones in the ground well they never make a sound
And the bones in the ground are all fine
And the bones in the wind oh have mercy how they grin
And the bones in the wind are all mine
---------------
At this point I believe there's a mandolin, or maybe a
balalaika (I vote balalaika) starting up in there.
---------------
F C D# A#
Oh poor la-Lorraine won't you comment on my sprain
F C A#-(A-G)
and I'll shave you in some cozy church
F C A# D#
I don't care what you're called, I just want to shave you bald
F C A#-(A-G)
and I'll know that I've finished my search
And the bones in the ground well they never make a sound
and the bones in the ground are all fine
And the bones in the air well they sing a rattling air
and the bones in the air are all mine
And finally, the Rickenbacker chimes in at the end with
something that might vaguely resemble this:
-----------------6-3--3---------------3----3-----
-43--6----8-5--5-6-4----4------3--------5----5-6-
---5-5--57--5--5----------3--35--5--5---5------3-
-------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------
...Though I'm guessing as to the actual fingering (and
to some extent the whole ending)!
