Chords with lyrics

• Capo on 4th

Key: E

Verse 1:
C             F
I broke down in East Saint Louis
C      F
Kansas City line
C        Am
drunk up all my money
    D7       G7
that I borrowed every time


   C        F
and I fell down at the derby
C         F
night's black as a crow
     C   Am
It was a train got me here
  D7     G7   C   F C F
no train gonna take me home

Verse 2:
C           F
What made my dreams so hollow
C        F
standing at that depot
C        Am
steeple full of blackbirds
      D7       G7
they could never ring the bell
   C        F
I've come ten thousand miles
C          F
i've got nothing to show
     C      Am
it was a train got me here
  D7      G7    C
no train gonna get me home

Interlude: C F - C F7 - C Am - D7 G7 C

Verse 3:
C        F
Remember when I left
C        F
I didn't even pack
 C           Am
I just up and went with nothing
     D7        G7
but this dress here on my back
   C       F
I am sorry for the things I've done
C       F
out here on my own
     C   Am
it was a train got me here
  D7     G7   C   F
no train gonna get me home
 C      Am
a train got me here
           D7     G7      C
there ain't no kinda train ever gonna get me home
