Freight Train chords by Alan Jackson

Chords with lyrics

Intro.: (E minorEm) x 8

I (E minorEm)just came down from Chippewa, had as (C majorC)station wagon and a hundred dollars
(D MajorD)Thinkin' about the girl I'd lost a (E minorEm)year before
I hadn't seen her for some time, thought (C majorC)I might go on by
When your (D MajorD)memory came floodin' in and you (E minorEm)closed that door

(Chorus)
Wish it was a (E minorEm) freight train baby, wish it was a (C majorC)diesel locomotive
I'd come (D MajorD)whistlin' down your track (E minorEm)crashin' in your door
Wish it was a freight train baby, wish it didn't (C majorC)have a heart
You need a (D MajorD)shovel for the coal (E minorEm)just to get me started
Wish it was a freight train baby, wish it was a (C majorC) freight train baby
Wish it was a (D MajorD) freight train (E minorEm)

Well (E minorEm)every time I talk to you I (C majorC)hear your jealous lines
I (D MajorD)feel like I've been left abandoned on (E minorEm)some old railway side
And every time I hear your voice my (C majorC)water just gets cold
My (D MajorD)stoker will not stoke and my (E minorEm)boiler will not boil.

Repeat Chorus

Well (E minorEm)every time I fell behind I (C majorC)could not get ahead
I (D MajorD)wish someone would pull the lever and (E minorEm)give me a little sand
And every time I slip behind (C majorC)even further back
I (D MajorD)wish some switch man would come out of the (E minorEm)fog and change my track
