Freight Train

Am F G Am

       Am                                    F
Well I just came down the Chippewa, I had a station wagon and hundred dollars,
      G                                    Am
I was thinkin' 'bout the girl I'd lost the year before.
  Am                               F
I hadn't seen her for some time, I thought that I might go on by,
          G                           Am
When your memory came floodin' in and closed that door.

           Am                                  F
Wish I was a freight train, baby, wish I was a diesel locomotive,
         G                             Am
I'd come whistlin' down your track and crashin' in your door.
             Am                                 F
Wish I was a freight train, baby, wish I didn't have a heart,
                 G                   Am
And you'd need a shovel full of coal just to get me started.
             Am                                E
Wish I was a freight train, baby, wish I was a freight train.

Am                         F
Every time I talk to you, I hear your jealous lies,
            G                                Am
I feel like I've been left abandoned on some old railway siding.
Am                                   F
And every time I hear your voice, my water just gets cold,
   G                            Am
My stoker will not stoke and my boiler will not boil.

 Am                                            F
Wish I was a freight train, baby, wish I was a diesel locomotive,
         G                             Am
I'd come whistlin' down your track and crashin' in your door.
             Am                                 F
Wish I was a freight train, baby, wish I didn't have a heart,
                 G                   Am
And you'd need a shovel full of coal just to get me started.
             Am                                E
Wish I was a freight train, baby, wish I was a freight train.

Am F G Am x2

Am                           F
Every time I fell behind and I could not get ahead,
         G                                 Am
I wish someone would pull a lever and give me a little sand.
Am                               F
And every time I slipped behind, hey, even further back,
             G                                        Am
I wish some switch man would come out of the fog and change my track.

 Am                                            F
Wish I was a freight train, baby, wish I was a diesel locomotive,
         G                             Am
I'd come whistlin' down your track and crashin' in your door.
             Am                                 F
Wish I was a freight train, baby, wish I didn't have a heart,
                 G                   Am
And you'd need a shovel full of coal just to get me started.
             Am                                E               Fade.....
Wish I was a freight train, baby, wish I was a freight train.
