My Daddy was a rounder
Had to make himself some change
E7
Climbed down off the mountain
Shaved his head and caught a train
       A      G#m     F#m
But I keep my skillet greasy
E        A   G#m         E
Keep my lamp trimmed 'n' low
    A    G#m          F#m      E
My weary feet, these floors I walk
    A               B
But why I'll never know
       E
And I hear echoes of his heart
         B                 E
Beating back from distant lands
And I hear the lonesome whistle
          B                 E
Of that train that stole my man

And I cuddle to my child
Teach him to bear the shame
To take the blows
That choose the frows and
Earn an honest name
     A       G#m    F#m       E
But money's running low, you know?
    A         G#m      E
No friends to help me through
      A        G#m  F#m     E
Just one last thing I can sell
     A                B
And that will have to do
       E
But I feel hunger in my sunken cheeks
        B             E
In the tremble of my hand
And I feel the rumblin' of the wheels
         B                   E
Of that train that stole my man

My mind just takes to ramblin'
As the day goes walkin' west
And Magnus comes a-crawlin'
Through that hole inside my breast
     A      G#m       F#m    E
And sorrow sings the simple song
      A          G#m          E
That screams the whole night through
   A  G#m   F#m     E
A melody of him and me
      A             B
That never rang so true
       E
And I see dark clouds on the rise
           B              E
And I see midgets in the sand
They paint my sight with visions
          B                  E
Of that train that stole my man

And I dreamt I found his crossroads
        B                  E
In the land of sticks and stones
Where the peggy worries of the heart
    B            E
Are worries so unknown
    A      G#m    F#m        E
He took me in his arms, you know
     A      G#m     E
And tied me to his side
 A           G#m       F#m      E
Caught that first wind off the hills
      A             B
And further we did ride
        E
Well I felt his touch upon my breast
      B           E
That unforgiving hand
But when I woke, could smell the smoke
         B                   E
Of that train that stole my man

Now the wind runs through my skin
         B                    E
And the rain runs through my eyes
Can't find no ground to hold my feet
      B                E
Lord knows how hard I tries!
     A        G#m        F#m      E
For come the dawn, I'll clean my teeth
     A    G#m     E
And powder up my chest
     A         G#m   F#m    E
Take off this faded apron, babe
         A            B
And put on my Sunday best
    E
To bind the strings to fix my heart
     B                  E
I'm gonna look to holy lands
And lay my back down on the track
         B                   E
Of that train that stole my man
