Freight Train Alan Jackson
Lyrics and guitar chords
Em
x8I
Em
just came down from Chippewa, had as C
station wagon and a hundred dollarsD
Thinkin' about the girl I'd lost a Em
year beforeI hadn't seen her for some time, thought
C
I might go on byWhen your
D
memory came floodin' in and you Em
closed that doorWish it was a
Em
freight train baby, wish it was a C
diesel locomotiveI'd come
D
whistlin' down your track Em
crashin' in your doorWish it was a freight train baby, wish it didn't
C
have a heartYou need a
D
shovel for the coal Em
just to get me startedWish it was a freight train baby, wish it was a
C
freight train babyWish it was a
D
freight train Em
Well
Em
every time I talk to you I C
hear your jealous linesI
D
feel like I've been left abandoned on Em
some old railway sideAnd every time I hear your voice my
C
water just gets coldMy
D
stoker will not stoke and my Em
boiler will not boil.Wish it was a
Em
freight train baby, wish it was a C
diesel locomotiveI'd come
D
whistlin' down your track Em
crashin' in your doorWish it was a freight train baby, wish it didn't
C
have a heartYou need a
D
shovel for the coal Em
just to get me startedWish it was a freight train baby, wish it was a
C
freight train babyWish it was a
D
freight train Em

x2Well
Em
every time I fell behind I C
could not get aheadI
D
wish someone would pull the lever and Em
give me a little sandAnd every time I slip behind
C
even further backI
D
wish some switch man would come out of the Em
fog and change my trackWish it was a
Em
freight train baby, wish it was a C
diesel locomotiveI'd come
D
whistlin' down your track Em
crashin' in your doorWish it was a freight train baby, wish it didn't
C
have a heartYou need a

just to get me startedWish it was a freight train baby, wish it was a
