Written by Steve Earle
D When I'm sad and blue A7 And I'm feeling all alone There's a place that I go to D That no one knows D Where no matter what I do A7 Won't nobody put me down That's why I'm going to D The other side of town D On the other side of town A7 Where the sun don't ever shine Everybody walks around D With a shadow cross their minds D When that midnight train rolls by A7 And they hear that lonesome sound They just hang their heads and cry D On the other side of town D Well it isn't very far A7 And it's not that hard to find D You just follow all the other lonely souls D Take a walk down lonesome lane A7 'Til you see the dead end sign D And your broken heart will tell you where to go D To the other side of town A7 Where the sun don't ever shine Everybody walks around D With a shadow cross their minds When that midnight train rolls by A7 And they hear that lonesome sound They just hang their heads and cry D On the other side of town SOLO D So if you've find someone A7 Who won't never let you down D Hurry home before the sun goes down D No matter what you do A7 Don't let night fall like a shroud D And catch you on the other side of town D On the other side of town A Where the sun don't ever shine Everybody walks around D With a shadow cross their minds D When that midnight train rolls by A And they hear that lonesome sound They just hang their heads and cry D On the other side of town >From Steve Earle "El Corazon" Wartner Brothers Records 1997 South Nashville Music/WB Music Corp(ASCAP) David Steele guitar Jason Carter fiddle Tommy Hannum steel guitar Roy Huskey Jr bass Scott Miller harmony
