Waiting for a Train Chords & Lyrics by Jimmie Rodgers
Waiting for a Train
guitar chords lyrics
yodel C F C G7 C
C G7 C C7 F Fm C
All around the water tank waiting for a train
F C Am D7 G7
A thousand miles away from home sleeping in the rain
C G7 C C7 F Fm C
I walked up to a brakeman just to give him a line of talk
F C D7 G7
He said if you've got money I'll see that you don't walk
C G7 C C7 F Fm C
Well I haven't got a nickel not a penny can I show
F C D7 G7 C
He said get off you railroad bum and he slammed the boxcar door
yodel C F C G7 C
G7 C G7 C C7 F Fm C
Well he put me off in Texas a place I dearly love
F C D7 G7
The wide open spaces all around me the moon and stars above
C G7 C C7 F Fm C
Nobody seems to want me nor to lend me a helping hand
F C D7 G7
I'm on my way from Frisco heading back to Dixie Land
C G7 C C7 F Fm C
My pocketbook is empty my heart is willed with pain
F C D7 G7 C
I'm a thousand miles away from home just waiting for a train
yodel C F C G7 C
