[Verse 1]
[D]There goes
the train that carried my girl from town
If I knowed her number, Lord,
I'd [A]flag [D]her down
Wish to the Lord that the
train would wreck
Kill that engineer and break the
[A]fireman's [D]neck
Hey, the [A]train that

[Verse 2]
[D]carried
my girl from town
Hey, hey, [A]hey, [D]hey

[Verse 3]
Where was you when the train [D]left town?
I stand on the corner
with my [A]head hung [D]down
If I had my gun I'd let the hammer down
Lord, I'd shoot that rounder
that took my [A]girl from [D]town

[Verse 4]
Hey, that [A]train that [D]car
ried my girl from town
Hey, [A]hey, hey, [D]hey

[Verse 5]
Rations on [D]the table and
the coffee's getting cold
And some dirty rounder took my [A]jelly [D]roll
Hello, Central, give me six-o-nine
I I I want to talk to that [A]woman of [D]mine
Hey, that [A]train

[Verse 6]
that carried my
[D]girl from town
Hey, hey, [G]hey,[D][A][D]
[A]
[D]hey[A][D]

[Verse 7]
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Can you show me that woman
that a [A]man can [D]trust
There goes my girl,
somebody bring her back
'Cause she got her hand
in my [A]money [D]sack
Hey, that [A]train that [D]carried my girl from

[Verse 8]
town
[A]Hey, hey, hey, [D]hey
