E7: 020100
Bass walk E-G-A: E0-E3-A0
Capo 1

      Am
I'm a-walking down the track, I've got tears in my eyes,
I'm tryin' to read a letter from my home;
                                  Dm
If that train runs right, I'll be home tomorrow night,
                        E7            Am
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home.
      Dm                E7               Am  (Bass walk E-G-A x2)
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow,

       Am
I will pawn you my watch, I will pawn you my chain,
I'll pawn you my gold watch and my chain;
                                  Dm
If that train runs right, I'll be home tomorrow night,
                        E7            Am
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home.
      Dm                E7               Am  (Bass walk E-G-A x2)
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow,

    Am
The train I ride on is a hundred coaches long.
You can hear her whistle blow a hundred miles;
                                  Dm
If that train runs right, I'll be home tomorrow night,
                        E7            Am
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home.
      Dm                E7               Am  (Bass walk E-G-A x2)
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow,

      Am
If my woman tells me so then I'll railroad no more.
But I'll sidetrack my train and go home.
                                    Dm
If that wheeler runs right, I'll be home tomorrow night,
                        E7            Am
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home.
      Dm                E7               Am  (Bass walk E-G-A x2)
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow,
