Freight Train Alan Jackson
Freight Train Alan Jackson
(Capo on 3)
Intro.: (Em) x 8
I (Em)just came down from Chippewa, had as (C)station wagon and a hundred dollars
(D)Thinkin' about the girl I'd lost a (Em)year before
I hadn't seen her for some time, thought (C)I might go on by
When your (D)memory came floodin' in and you (Em)closed that door
(Chorus)
Wish it was a (Em) freight train baby, wish it was a (C)diesel locomotive
I'd come (D)whistlin' down your track (Em)crashin' in your door
Wish it was a freight train baby, wish it didn't (C)have a heart
You need a (D)shovel for the coal (Em)just to get me started
Wish it was a freight train baby, wish it was a (C) freight train baby
Wish it was a (D) freight train (Em)
Well (Em)every time I talk to you I (C)hear your jealous lines
I (D)feel like I've been left abandoned on (Em)some old railway side
And every time I hear your voice my (C)water just gets cold
My (D)stoker will not stoke and my (Em)boiler will not boil.
Repeat Chorus
Inst.: (Em) (Em) (C) (C) (D) (D) (Em) (Em)
[(Em)] [(Em)] [(C)] [(C)] [(D)] [(D)] [(Em)] [(Em)] [(Em)] [(Em)]
Well (Em)every time I fell behind I (C)could not get ahead
I (D)wish someone would pull the lever and (Em)give me a little sand
And every time I slip behind (C)even further back
I (D)wish some switch man would come out of the (Em)fog and change my track
Repeat Chorus
Inst.: (Em) (Em) (C) (C) (D) (D) (Em) (Em) x 4
Repeat Chorus
Inst.: (Em) (Em) (C) (C) (D) (D) (Em) (Em) repeat times to fade
