The Little Engine That Could Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]The[A]re [D]was[A] a little railroad[D]
train [G]with loads and loads of toys
[D]All starting out to find a h[A]ome
[E]with little girls [A]and boys
And as that little [D]railroad train
[G]began to chug along
The little [E]engine up in front was heard
to sing [A]this song
Choo, choo, [D]choo, choo
Choo, choo, choo, choo
I feel so good [A]today
Oh hear the track
Oh clickety clack
I'll go my merry [D]way

[Verse 2]
The little train went rousing [G]on
so fast it seemed to fly
[D]Until it reached a mountain
that [E]went almost to the sky
[A]The Little eng[D]ine moaned and groaned
[G]and huffed and puffed away
But halfway [E]to the top it just gave
up and seemed [A]to say
[D]I can't go
I can't go
I'm weary as [A]can be
I can't go
I can't go
This job is not [D]for me

[Verse 3]
The toys got out to push
but all [G]in vain alas alack
[D]And then a great big engine cam[A]e
a whist[E]ling down [A]the track
They [D]asked if it would kindly pull
[G]them up the mountain side
But with [E]a high and mighty
sneer it scornfully [A]replied
I
Don't bother [D]me
Don't bother me
To pull the likes [A]of you
Don't bother me
Don't bother me
I've better things [D]to do

[Verse 4]
The toys all started cry[A]ing 'cause
[G]that engine was so mean
[D]And then there came another one[A],
[E]the smallest ever [A]seen
And though [D]it seemed that she
could hardly [G]pull herself along
She hitched [E]on to the train and as
she pulled she sang this song
[A]I think I c[D]an
I think I can
I think I have a plan
[A]And I can do most anything
If I only think [D]I can

[Verse 5]
Then [D]up that great big moun
[A]tain with [G]the cars all full of toys
[D]And soon they reached the waiting
arms of little [E]girls [A]and boy
And though [D]that ends the story it
[G]will do you lots of good
To take [E]a lesson from
the little engine that could
[A]Just think you[D] can
Just think you can
Just have that under[A]stood
And very soon you'll start to say
I always knew I could
[D]I knew I could
I knew I could
I knew I could
I knew I could
I knew I could
I knew I could, yeah!
