The Engineers Dying Child

D
(início)
D G D A little child on a sickbed lay G D And death was very near G D He was the pride and the only child E7 A Of a railroad engineer D His duty had called him from those he loved G D And seeing that hope was dim G D While a tear he shed to his wife, he said A D Just have two lanterns trimmed"
Chorus
G D Just hang a light when I pass tonight A Hang it where it can be seen D G If the baby's dead then show the red D A D If he's better then show the green
Verse
D G D In a little shack by the railroad track G D A mother with watchful eyes G D Saw a gleam of hope in a tender smile E7 A As the train went rushing by D Just one short look was his only chance? G D To see the light a gleam G D In the midnight air, there rose a prayer A D Thank God the light was green
Chorus
G D Just hang a light when I pass tonight A Hang it where it can be seen D G If the baby's dead then show the red D A D If he's better then show the green
