I Wish I Was A Train

Capo on 2nd fret
	  		** 
----------------------------------------------------------- 
 
C 	  	  	  	    F 	     C 
When I was a little boy I used to lie in my bed 
     
     F 	  	    C 	 G 
and listen for the '9:09' 
 
    F 	  	  	  	   C 
It never ran on Christmas or the day that Jesus died 
 
 	  	 G 	        C 
but every other day it ran on time 
 
 
C 	  	  	      F 	     	  	  C 
It always made me lonesome, but it brought me comfort 
 
     F 	  	    C 	  	 G   
and what it did to me I can't explain 
 
     F 	  	  	  	 C 
And as I wonder through this harsh and gentle world 
 
 	  	  	 G 	       C 
Oh every now and then I wish I was a train 
 
 
Chrous 
 
F 	  	     C 	  
Roll on roll on into the dark night 
 
F 	  	  	    G 
Leavin' all my troubles behind 
 
F 	  	   C 	   Am 
Carryin' my soul far far away 
 
C 
Oh every now and then 
 
   G 	  	 C 
I wish I was a train 
 
 
I loaded trucks in Isa rode the dingo fences 
cursed the ganger on the western line 
Started throwin' punches in a bar at Charters Towers 
They threw the book at me I did my time 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge 
 
 	 F 	  	   C 
Cause a train don't weep a train don't feel 
 
F 	    C 	  	 G 
heartache sadness and pain 
 
     F 	  	    C 	  	   Am 
And when I die just let my spirit ride  
 
 	 C  	     G 	  	 C 
on the boxcar of an ever rollin' train 
 
Chorus
