INTRO:  F  Bb  C  F
        F  Bb  C  F  F
 
 
VERSE:
F                     Am
On a train ride from some place bad
Bb                      C     Am
  To some place little better 
F                Am
  In between my youth and manhood
Bb               C      Am
  Was a place I met her 
F                        Am
  She was just a skinny brown eyed girl 
Bb                   C       Am
  With a hunger for tomorrow 
F                  Am
  And I was then obese by pain. 
Bb                        C      Am
  I had all that I could swallow. 
 
 
CHORUS:
Bb                  F         Dm
  Oh, fair haired travelling girl
Bb                   Dm C  Bb
  Keep on travelling on on on
Bb                  F
  Oh, fair haired travelling girl
               Dm            C       Bb  Bb   F  Bb  C  F
It's just the seat that you have is wrong 
 
 
VERSE:
 F                     Am
Her eyes were packing passed regrets. 
Bb                         C       Am
  In her lips there was redemption 
F                     Am
  And she mistook my coat for love. 
Bb                      C      Am
  As she wore it for affection 
F                      Am
  And as she took the seat beside me. 
Bb                      C        Am
  I inhaled all of her laughter 
F                      Am
  And she forgot there is a past. 
Bb                           C     Am
  While I forgot there is an after.
 
 
CHORUS:
Bb                  F         Dm
  Oh, fair haired travelling girl
Bb                   Dm C  Bb
  Keep on travelling on on on
Bb                  F
  Oh, fair haired travelling girl
               Dm            C       Bb  Bb    F  Bb  C  F
It's just the seat that you have is wrong

VERSE:
F                     Am
On a train ride from some place gone. 
Bb                      C      Am
  To some place almost certain 
F                Am
  In between my flesh and bone. 
Bb                 C      Am
  Was the place I met her 
F                       Am
  Her wrapped up in my coat of shame. 
Bb                         C       Am
  She laid there sleeping tightly 
F                              Am
  And as the train pulled to another stop. 
   Bb                             C      Am
I left and I knew she'd go on without me. 
 
 
CHORUS:
Bb                  F         Dm
  Oh, fair haired travelling girl
Bb                   Dm C  Bb
  Keep on travelling on on on
Bb                  F
  Oh, fair haired travelling girl
               Dm            C       Bb
It's just the seat that you have is wrong
 
 
OUTRO:
               Dm            C       Bb
It's just the seat that you have is wrong
               Dm            C        Bb
It's just the seat that you have was wrong
        F  Bb  C  F
That's all

This is the live version of the song ... Here is the you tube video I used to tab it from: https://youtu.be/uSWEhh7LUs8 If I ever see the album version I will check and see if I would need to make changes to this one as I prefer the actual album version rather then the live versions... Although I would think that with this song they would be very close to one another.

Thanks, maybe you should mention this is in standard tuning with a Capo on 3rd fret to avoid misjugement of the tab (which is right) (note that I refer to the CD version, all my bad if the live was different I can't see it, doesn't open on Youtube...)
