Little Black Train chords by Woody Guthrie

Chords with lyrics

runs here and there.

He doesn't quite play it the right way all throughout.

G+G
There's a little black train a-coming

Coming down the track
C majorC
You gotta ride that little black train
    D MajorD            G+G
But it ain't a-gonna bring you back

You may be a barroom gambler
And cheat your way through life
But you can't cheat that little black train
Or beat this final ride

You silken barroom ladies
dressed in your worldly pride
C majorC
You`ve got to ride that little black train
G+G
That`s coming in tonight

Your million dollar fortune
Your mansion glittering white
C majorC
You can`t take it with you
     G+G
When the train rolls in tonight

Get ready for your savior
And fix your business right
You`ve got to ride that little black train
To make this final ride

You silken barroom ladies
dressed in your worldly pride
C majorC
You`ve got to ride that little black train
         G+G
That`s coming in tonight

You may be a barroom gambler
Cheat your way through life
C majorC
But you can`t cheat that little black train
  G+G
Or beat this final ride

There`s a little black train a-coming
Coming down the track
You`ve got to ride that little black train
