Guitar chords with lyrics

C                            F                 C                 G7
Well the old iron trail is a railroad track it runs all over our land

    C                    F          G7             C
And I had traveled every foot of it before I was a man

                 F          C                        G7
My daddy told me stories he told me some pretty wild tales

   C             F                 C        G7           C
Of long ago when he was a beau and traveled the old iron trail


                                           F      C                      G7
And he said well there ain't no sofas in a boxcar there ain't no feather bed

There ain't no carpet for your feet no pillows to lay your head

                        F     C                       G7
There ain't no milk and honey there ain't no beer and ale

C                F              C          G7       C
Life is hell the bread is stale out on the old iron trail


                      F             C             G7
Well I'm just like my daddy there?s hobo blood in me

    C                   F                    G7                 C
And that old iron trail that he knew so well soon was a-callin? me

                         F       C                  G7
I traveled all over this country over ever hill and dale

C            F            C            G7       C
Riding on an old boxcar I traveled the old iron trail


                                             F      C                      G7
I want?cha to know there ain't no sofas in a boxcar there ain't no feather bed

      C               F             G7                     C
There ain't no carpet for your feet no pillows to lay your head

                        F     C                       G7
There ain't no milk and honey there ain't no beer and ale

C                F              C          G7       C
Life is hell the bread is stale out on the old iron trail

Better listen to me boys it ain't no life of Riley out there
Stay home never roam I know what I'm talking about
Wished I'd listened to my dad
He's a lot smarter than I gave him credit for


                             F     C                       G7
Yeah there ain't no milk and honey there ain't no beer and ale

C                F              C          G7       C
Life is hell the bread is stale out on the old iron trail
