Waiting For A Train

| D G | C |

[Verse 1]
               C7
All around the water tanks
F             C
Waiting for a train
  F               C
A thousand miles away from home
D7              G
Sleepin' in the rain

[Verse 2]
  C                      C7
I walked up to a brakeman
   F                  C
To give him a line of talk
   F                  C
He said if you've got money
     D7       D         G
I'll see that you don't walk

[Verse 3]

  C                   C7
I haven't got a nickel
      F           E    E7
Not a penny can I show
    F                 C        Am
Get off, get off, you railroad bum
       D7           G      C
And he slammed that boxcar door

[Verse 4]
                 C7
He put me off in Texas
  F              C
A state I dearly love
    F                     C
The wide open spaces all around me
        D7                  G7
And the moon and the stars above

[Verse 5]
C                      C7
Nobody seems to want me
   F                 C
Or lend me a helpin' hand
    F              C
I'm on my way from Frisco Bay
        Dm           G7
Headin' back to Dixieland

[Verse 6]
   C                  C7
My pocketbook is empty
       F                    E    E7
And my heart is filled with pain
      F               C        Am
I'm a thousand miles away from home
D7      G     C
Waiting for a train
