Trains and boats and planes are pass-ing by 
 2    -2  3  -3 -3* -3  3  -2  -3
They mean a trip to Par-is or Rome 
3   -2   2   3    2  -2   2  3
to some-one else but not for me 
 2    -2    2  -1    1   -1    2
The trains and the boats and planes  
 -2   3 -2  2  -1  1   -1  2
Took you a-way, a-way from me 
3   2   -2 2   3
We were so in love 
 2   -2  2  3   2  -2  3  -3
And high a-bove we had a star 
-3* -3  3  -2
to wish up-on. 
 -3   3    -2    2    3
Wish and dreams come true 
 2  -2   2  3
But not for me 
 2    -2    2  -1    1   -1    2
The trains and the boats and planes 
 -2   3 -2  2  -1  1   -1  2
Took you a-way, a-way from me 

 4  -3   -4  4  -5  4   -4  -3  3   -3
You are from an-oth-er part of the world 
 6  -5  4  -4  -3  3  -3    3   -3
You had to go back a while and then  
 6   -5   4   -4   -3   3   -3  3  -3
You said you soon would re-turn a-gain 
 6   -5   4   -4   -3  3  -3   3   -3
I`m wait-ing here like I prom-ised to 
 3   -3   3   -3   3   -3    3  -3
I`m wait-ing here but where are you? 

  3     2   -2    2    3 
Trains and Boats and Planes 
 2   -2  2  3
Took you a-way 
 2  -2  3   -3 -3* -3   3  -2  -3
But ev-‘ry time I  see them I pray 
 3  -2 2    3      2   -2    2   3
And if my prayers can cross the sea 
 2    -2    2  -1    1   -1    2
The trains and the boats and planes 
 -2    3   -2   2     -1   1   -1 2
Will bring you back, back home to me
