(This is what I call the "one guitar version" of the song. Although in the recorded version Josh has some beautiful Spanish sounding guitar solos, I've found it to be unfeasible for one person to play it that way with the chords. Well, for a player of my skill at least.)

(If people would like the tab for the solos, I could do my best at them, although tab isn't exactly my forte.)

Intro: [Am], first plucking the root note (5th string), and then strum the rest of the chord. It becomes clear when you listen to Josh do it on the album.

[Am] Romero got married on the [F] Fifth of July, [C]
In our Lady of Immaculate Dawn. [G]
He [Am] could've got married in the re[F]vival man's tent,[C]
There ain't no revi[G]vin' what's gone. [Am]

Slipped like a shadow from the [F]family he made,[C]
in a little white house by the woods [G]
Dropped [Am]the kids at the mission with a [F]rose for the [C]virgin,
she knew he was [G]gone for good. [Am]

Its a [C]long way to heaven, [G]its closer to Harrisburg,
But [F]that's still a long way from the [C]place where we [G] are.
And if [Am]evil exists, its a [F]pair of train [C]tracks,
and the devil's a [G]railroad car. [Am]

Could have stayed somewhere but the [F]train tracks kept going [C]
And it seems like they always left [G]soon
and the [Am]wolves that he ran with they [F] moaned low and [C]painful
sang sad miser[G]eres to the moon [Am]

(chorus)

Rose at the altar [F]withered and [C]wilted
Romero sank into a [G]dream
He [Am]didn't make Heaven, he [F]didn't make [C]Harrisburg
He died in a [G]hole in between [Am]

Some say that man is the [F]root of all [C]evil
Others say God's a drunkard for [G]pain
[Am]Me I believe that the [F]Garden of [C]Eden
Was burned to make [G] way for a [Am]train, for a train.

(chorus)
