Intro: G-Gb-A G-D7
G G7 G7 G7
And I followed her to the station, with a suitcase in my hand
C C G7-D7
And I followed-her-to-the-station, with a suitcase in my hand
G A7 D7 G
Well it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell, when all your love's in vain
-D7
All my love's in vain
G G7 G7 G7
When the train rolled up to the station, I looked her in the eye
C C G7-D7
When the train-rolled-up-to-the-station, I looked her in the eye
G A7 D7 G
Well, I was lonesome, I felt so lonesome, and I could not help but cry
-D7
All my love's in vain
G G7 G7 G7
When the train it left the station, with two lights on behind
C C G7-D7
When the train-it-left-the-station, with two lights on behind
G A7 D7 G
Well the blue light was my blues, and the red light was my mind
-D7
All my love's in vain
G G7 G7 G7
Ohh ho oh oh oh, Willie Mae
C C G7-D7
Ohh oh oh oh oh, hey, ho, Willie Mae
G A7 D7 G
Ohh oh, oh oh oh oh, hee vee oh woe
-D7
All my love's in vain
