 One generation's length away

 To find a way to say that life has just begun

   Bm/G
Had a talk with my old man
   A#/G
 Said "help me understand"
   D/F#
 He said "turn sixty-eight
   D5-                  D(sus2)/5-
 You renegotiate"

    D5+/G                  D(sus2)/5+/G
"Don't stop this train
   Gm            D5+/G         D(sus2)/5+/G          D/F#             D9/F#
 Don't for   a minute change the place you're in
   D/F#                D9/F#                  D5-
 Don't think I couldn't ever understand
   D5-                D(sus2)/5-
 I tried my hand
   A7(sus4)              A7           Am7           A7(sus2)        A(sus2)/D
 John, honestly we'll never stop    this    train"

   G9             G              G/B
Once in awhile, when it's good
   C#m7/9-/5-                  G9
 It'll feel like it should
   G                       G/B
 And they're all still around
   C#m7/9-/5-                        G9
 And you're still safe and sound
   G                     G/B
 And you don't miss a thing
   C#m7/9-/5-                       D(sus4)/5+        Am9                Em(6)(9)
 Till you cry when you're driving    away in the dark
 Singing


Chorus:
   D5+/G            D(sus2)/5+/G
Stop this train
   Gm                D(sus2)/5+/G
 I want to get off
   D/F#                D9/F#
 And go home again
   D/F#        D4/F        D/F#          D9/F#              D5-           D(sus2)/5-
 I can't take the speed it's moving in
    D5-           D(sus2)/5-
 I know I can't
   A7(sus4)         A7          Am7                  A7(sus2)         A(sus2)/D
 But honestly, won't someone stop this train?
