Life is like
[B] a [E] mountain railway, with [A] an engineer [E] so brave.
We must make this run successful, [F#] from the cradle [B] to the grave.
[E] Watch the [B] curbs that fill the tunnel, [A] never [F#m]
falter, [E] never fail.
Keep your hand upon the throttle, and your eye upon the rail.
[A] Blessed Savior, [E] Thy will guide us, till we reach that [B] blissful shore,
[E] where the angels [A] wait to join us, [E] in Thy [B]
praise [E] forevermore.
