I've been on my way for such a [G] long time [D]
Singing the blues [A]
up and [D] down this road
Seen good times and I've seen bad [G] times sometimes
[D]
But I want to go back [A] to the times and places I [D] used to know
Let me ride, ride on the [G] slow train Carry me [D] home, [A]
[D] carry me home
[Bm] [Em]
[D] [G]
[D] [A]
Been [D]
out on the streets, broke down [G] and hungry
[D] Drank wine with kings and queens I've seen right and wrong
Now I'm feeling kind of tired [G] and weary [D] Wish the slow train [A] would come and [D] take me
Let me ride, ride on the [G] slow train Carry [D] me home, [A]
[D] carry me home
Let me ride, [Em]

[D] Time will come when my traveling [G] days are over
[D] At the end of this [A] winding road where the journey [D] ends
Don't you bury me, boss, just leave me standing [G] at a crossroads
I [D] know a slow train, it [A] can come around [D] the bend
Let me ride, [Em]
[D] ride [G] on the slow train Carry [D] me home, carry me home
Let me ride, [E]

NotesBeta

To learn Hans Theessink - Slow Train chords, these are the chords to practise in sequence: D, A, D, G and D. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 56 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 112. Align the capo with your vocal depth and chord choice, bearing in mind the song's original key: D Major.
