Southbound Train chords by Roger Alan Wade

D                        G                      D
 Sang an old gospel song  stoned on Blue Ribbon beer
D                                                A
People don’t get Me wrong, God knows I’m stone sincere
D                                 G              D
 Let the neighbors talk, ask the Preacher Man to pray
       D                         A              D
When I die just gather My family,  sing Amazing Grace

        G                                  D
Oh when I die, lay My soul on a southbound train
          A                          D
Don’t You cry Mamma, Jesus kept the pain
                G                                         D
You can bury My body in Detroit City in the early morning rain
          A                                D
Oh when I die, lay My soul on a southbound train

        D                          G                 D
Got My old flat top Gibson on the back porch playin' blues
     D                                              A
It’s too cool to go barefoot, but I ain’t wearin no shoes
     D                                  G                D
Just mellowing out and rolling down the back roads of My mind
          D                             A                D
Past them old churchyards and honkytonks, bullet riddled road signs

          G                                D
Oh when I die, lay My soul on a southbound train
          A                          D
Don’t You cry Mamma, Jesus kept the pain
                G                                   D
You can bury My body in Detroit City in the morning rain
       A                                     D
When I die, just lay My soul on a southbound train

        G                                D
When I die, lay My soul on a southbound train
          A                    D
Don’t You cry, Jesus kept the pain
         G                                   D
Bury My body in Detroit City in the morning rain
        A                                D
When I die, lay My soul on a southbound train
          A                                     G
Oh when I die, just lay My soul on a southbound train
