Little Black Train chords by Guthrie Woody

For embellishments just do hammer-ons the e, a, and d strings. Also, a few bass
runs here and there.

He doesn't quite play it the right way all throughout.

G
There's a little black train a-coming

Coming down the track
C
You gotta ride that little black train
       D                       G
But it ain't a-gonna bring you back

You may be a barroom gambler
And cheat your way through life
But you can't cheat that little black train
Or beat this final ride

You silken barroom ladies
dressed in your worldly pride
C
You've got to ride that little black train
G
That's coming in tonight

Your million dollar fortune
Your mansion glittering white
C
You can't take it with you
         G
When the train rolls in tonight

Get ready for your savior
And fix your business right
You've got to ride that little black train
To make this final ride

You silken barroom ladies
dressed in your worldly pride
C
You've got to ride that little black train
                 G
That's coming in tonight

You may be a barroom gambler
Cheat your way through life
C
But you can't cheat that little black train
   G
Or beat this final ride

There's a little black train a-coming
Coming down the track
You've got to ride that little black train
but it ain't a-gonna bring you back
