Intro (x2) verse 1 Boarding the train, I don't know if I will ever see her again, But of one thing I am sure, I'm heading off to war, I may not come back again. |:G (6 beats), (2 beats):| (x2) What's the cost to win, People say we'll change the world, but where do I fit in, At least I can wave goodbye, To the apple of my eye, Oh this crazy crazy world. Bridge So don't let me sleep, I've got a promise to keep, you will be on my mind, saying be strong in this fight, and carrying me through these troubled times. So wake me up in Nashville, cause it's where I wanna be, and I will meet you on the platform at 3:15, and I will look into your eyes in the fading autumn light, wake me up in Nashville, let me hold you tonight. |:G (6 beats), (2 beats):| (x2) verse 2 Do you understand, as I put that 20 dollars in your hand, The task that you must do, It may mean that's all to you, but it means everything to me. My friends they may get lost, cause they're fighting for what they believe but if you were all I've got, put your picture in my Pocket-watch, capturing that smile is all I want to do for now, I may be gone a while, but I will make it back somehow. Bridge So don't let me sleep, I've got a promise to keep, you will be on my mind, saying be strong in this fight, and carrying me through these troubled times. So wake me up in Nashville, cause it's where I wanna be, and I will meet you on the platform at 3:15, and I will look into your eyes in the fading autumn light, wake me up in Nashville, let me hold you (Instrumental based upon main chords) Choral verse Pulling in to Nashville and that's where I wanna be, got 15 seconds till I see you and I'll hold you tenderly, but he says sir you must wake, I've made a terrible mistake, now its 4 am you said on you I could depend, from Pensacola on to journeys end So wake me up in Nashville, cause it's where I wanna be, and I will meet you on the platform at 3:15, and I will look into your eyes in the fading autumn light, wake me up in Nashville, let me hold you tonight
