[Verse 1]
Let [C]me tell
you the tale of Medicine Jack
He went out in the woods and
he never came back
Equipped with [F]a stick
[C]and[Am] a big [C]old sack
He went too [F]close [C]to the railroad track
[F][C]

[Verse 2]
You [C]know what
they say about Medicine Jack
He lived his life in a rolldown shack,
The wind a- screeching
through the cracks
And the sound of the trains from the
[F]railroad [C]track

[F]

[Verse 3]
Well [C]here's the truth about
Medicine Jack
He painted his face and
his whole shack black
[F]He went up [C]in the woods
and he never came back
He must have got too close to the

[Interlude 3]
railroad track
[C][F][C][F][C][F]

[Verse 4]
[C]Did you see him on that fateful night?
Did you see his grizzly
face in the torchlight?
Did you see him crawling
down among the trees
And getting scabs on his hands and knees?
[F]Did [C]you see the demise of Medicine Jack
His pitiful face still painted black
Just a spit and a stride from
the rolldown shack
Down on by the railroad
[Am]trac[C]k?[F][C][F][C]
[F]Don't turn [C]your back on Medicine Jack!

[Interlude 4]
[C]

[Verse 5]
[C]I was [Am]thinking about [C]the
[Am]ghost of Medicine [C]Jack
On starless nights [Dm]when the sky is [C]black
I can hear him singing those
deadman's [D]blues
[C]And whistling down [Am]by
[F]the [Ab]rail[G]road track[C]
