A           E*               F#m
Butter on a summer day, when she's around.

              E               D
I was on the track when the gate came down.

A           E
Certainly I recognized

      F#m                                  D
those blood-shot rear-view mirror eyes of mine.


B5           C#5             D    Dm
I heard that whistle call my name.

F#5      G#5   A5 D5           A5 G#D5
I almost drove away, but Megan I

      G5                 F#5              B5
had a feeling that you would be on that train

          D5               E5
so I just waited there for you

Another ride to another town where the air was clean
and the sun never goes down.
Everyone was standing in a line
between the landing and the stairs.
I heard somebody call my name
I almost climbed the stairs, but Megan I
had a feeling that someday you'd meet me there.
So I just waited there for you.

F#m  D5  A5  G#D5  G5  F#5  B5  
 E5

Butter on a summer day when I hear that name
like a dream that never came true.
Sat down on the track and waited for a train
to take me back to you.
Somebody came and took my hand.
I finally had to go.
But Megan I just want you to know
that I waited as long as I could.
