Verse 
       G                       Em 
Well I waited all night by the railroad tracks, 
G                            Em 
Hoping that train would come soon. 
      G                       Em 
I got two more smokes, half a bottle of scotch, 
       C             D       Em 
Man, I ain't got too much to lose. 

G                 Em 
 I toss slop at a local truck stop, 
     G                             Em 
In a town just out of Pittsburgh, PA. 
       G                     Em 
I make two twenty five but I still ain't alive,

Steel wheels burnin? into the night, 
Em         C      G                   Em   C  G 
 Take this cowboy home on a midnight ride.

Verse 
       G                   Em 
It's a long trip down them railroad tracks, 
   G                Em 
To Texas I've never seen. 
           G                         Em 
I've heard stories of toil about old men and their oil, 
             C          D          Em 
And how they lost their riches and dreams. 

         G                      Em 
Now, the angels came down in my dreams last night, 
         G                    Em 
While outside it was stormin? rain. 
            G                       Em 
There was a rhythm of drops beatin? on the rooftops, 
        C      D         Em 
And the angels sang of a train. 
              D            C           Em
