Intro:

E  B7  E

Verse 1:
        E
Life is like a mountain railroad
        A               E
With an engineer that's brave
        E
We must make the run successful
         F#7           B7
From the cradle to the grave
          E
Watch the curves the hills the tunnels
      A            E
Never falter never quail
          E
Keep your hands upon the throttle
         E   B7        E
And your eyes upon the rail

Verse 2:
         E                 E7
You will roll up grades of trial
         A                   E
You will cross the bridge of strife
         E
See that Christ is your conductor
        F#7                 B7
On this lightning train of life
       E                E7
Always mindful of obstructions
        A          E
Do your duty never fail
          E
Keep your hands upon the throttle
         E   B7        E
And your eyes upon the rail

Chorus:
        A                E
Blessed Savior thou will guide us
        E               B7
Till we reach the other shore
          E              A
Where the angels wait to join us
       E   B7       E       B7  E
in thy great forevermore

Verse 3:
       E
As you roll across the trestle
         A               E
Spanning Jordan's chilly tide
       E
You'll behold the Union Depot
     F#7                   B7
Into which your train will glide
             E
There you'll meet the superintendents
        A               E
God the Father, God the Son
         E
With the hearty, joyous plaudit
E              B7       E
“Weary pilgrim, welcome home”

Chorus:
        A                E
Blessed Savior thou will guide us
        E               B7
Till we reach the other shore
          E              A
Where the angels wait to join us
       E   B7       E
in thy great forevermore
        A                E
Blessed Savior thou will guide us
        E               B7
Till we reach the other shore
          E              A
Where the angels wait to join us
       E   B7       E
in thy great forevermore
