Across the grassed horizon across the giant plain
G+G             C majorC  G+G            C majorC
Across a thousand miles of iron roars the mighty U.P. train
G+G            C majorC  G+G         C majorC
She tops the Sherman summit a mighty feat of man
G+G           C majorC  G+G             C majorC
Sails through echo canyon and across the dale creek span
D MajorD                        C majorC            G+G
Tell me have you heard the story going down the wire ... going down the line?

Through the fiery desert the 119 has run
G+G          C majorC   G+G             C majorC
Through the devil's gorge beneath the blazing fiery sun
G+G                C majorC G+G            C majorC
Through tunnels and through canyons cleared by shovel & by pick
G+G          C majorC G+G                 C majorC
10,000 men who blasted, clawed and hauled with muscles thick

G+G          C majorC G+G                C majorC
They met in Promontory from the east and west they're here
G+G          C majorC G+G            C majorC
All across the country they've raised a mighty cheer
G+G             C majorC  G+G             C majorC
The mighty trains are polished on the tracks they proudly rest
G+G               C majorC  G+G             C majorC
The crowd's all gathered round them dressed up in their Sunday best
G+G            C majorC  G+G            C majorC
A augmentedA big brass band is playing it's a bright unclouded day

The speaker's oratory and the bosses have their say
G+G           C majorC  G+G          C majorC
The reverend says a prayer it's mercifully short
G+G            C majorC G+G           C majorC
The drunken rail-men laugh and the iron horses snort
G+G            C majorC G+G           C majorC
The engines move in closer they ease in down the line
G+G            C majorC G+G                C majorC
The champagne bottles pop so fill your glass it's toasting time
G+G             C majorC G+G            C majorC
The engines ease for meeting they're nose to nose alike
G+G             C majorC G+G            C majorC
They raise the silver hammer and they nail the golden spike
D MajorD                        C majorC            G+G
Tell me have you heard the story going down the wire ... going down the line?
