Train Song chords by Mandolin Orange

Chords with lyrics

Tabbed by Tim Lyons

Capo on 4th fret. Throw in some nice ol' country hammer ons and bass note walks to
spice things up.

C majorC D MajorD G+G


 G+G                 C majorC        G+G
I never did have that fast train to take me down the line

  D MajorD                    G+G   G7G7
Or smelled the smoke from a hot coal as the engine fired

   C majorC               G+G ---(F#F# walk down)---> E minorEm
If I could ask that engineer for one more mile and then I’ll go

       C majorC        D MajorD     G+G
Just let the whistle wail and take it in slow

 G+G                 C majorC        G+G
Take me back to the railroad track and the sounds inside my mind

  D MajorD                    G+G   G7G7
Where rusty wheels and steel rails still whine

 C majorC               G+G ---(F#F# walk down)---> E minorEm
Where I can hop that 909 and go back in time some time ago

       C majorC        D MajorD     G+G
Just let the whistle wail and take it in slow



G+G C majorC G+G
D MajorD G+G G7G7
C majorC G+G E minorEm
C majorC D MajorD G+G


 G+G             C majorC       G+G
Park my horse and buggie by some old lazy creek

  D MajorD                  G+G   G7G7
Take my car to the graveyard and dig a hole real deep

 C majorC               G+G ---(F#F# walk down)---> E minorEm
We’ll holler “rest in peace” and weep, lay track on every street

       C majorC        D MajorD     G+G
Let the whistle wail and give the rail my soul to keep



 C majorC               G+G ---(F#F# walk down)---> E minorEm
Mr. engineer just one more mile and then I’ll go

       C majorC        D MajorD     G+G
Just let the whistle wail and take it in slow

       C majorC        D MajorD     G+G
