[Dm] But I [Eb] think I hear that train a [Bb]
-comin'.
[F] There [F] it comes.
[C] [D] [G]
Well, I hear that train a-comin'.
It's a [Em] rollin' round the bend.
[G] I ain't seen the sunshine since I've gone away.
[C] I'm stuck and forced from prison.
Time keeps [G] dragging on.
But [D] that train keeps a-rollin'.
I'm bound to say.
[G] [G]
When I was just a baby, my mom told me, son,
always be a good boy, don't ever play with [C] guns.
I shot a man in [Bb] Reno [C] just to watch [G] him die.
[D] When I hear that train a-comin',
I think my [Bb] head a-cryin'.

and a fancy dinin' car.
They're probably drinkin' coffee and smokin' big cigars.
[C] I know I hear it comin'.
I know I can't [G] be free.
But [D] then people keep a-movin'.
And that's what [Bb] [G] tortures me.
Well, if they freed me from this prison,
if that [Em] railroad train was mine,
I betcha I'd move [G] it on a little farther down the line.
[C] Far from false [Bb] imprison.
[C] That's where I want [G] to stay.
And [D] I'd let that lonesome whistle,
yeah, blow my [G] blues [Em] away.
[G]
[N] Welcome to Britain Blue.
Thank you, son.
