Intro 1
(E minor) (Baug) (E minor)
Verse 1
Well, I gave (E minor) all my
money to the banker this month
Now (A minor) I got no more money
to spend (E minor)
She smiled when she saw me
comin' through that door
When I (C major) left she said, "Come back again" (B major)
I (E minor) watched them lonesome boxcar wheels
Turn (A minor) in' down the tracks
out of town (E minor)
And it's on that lonesome railroad track
I'm gonna lay (C major) my burden (B major) down
(E minor) (A major) (E minor)

Verse 2
(A major)
I was raised (E minor) on a farm the
first years of my life
(A major) Life was (A minor) pretty good, (C major) they say (E minor)
I'll probably live to be some ripe ol' age
If (C major) death'll stay out of my (B major) way
This world (E minor) can take my money and time
But it (A minor) sure can't take my soul (E minor)
I'm goin' down to the railroad tracks
Watch them (C major) lonesome (B major) (E minor) (A major)
(E minor) (B major) (E minor) (A major) boxcars roll
Verse 3
There's some (E minor) big ol' Buicks at
the Baptist church (A minor)
Caddilacs at the church of Christ (E minor)
I parked my camel by an ol' haystack
I'll (C major) be lookin' for that needle all night (B major)
There (E minor) ain't gonna be no radial tires
(A minor) Turnin' down the streets of gold (E minor)
I'm goin' down to the railroad tracks
And watch them (C major) lonesome (B major) boxcars roll (E minor)

Verse 4
Now if you (E minor) ever heard the whistle
on (B major) a fast (E minor) freight train
Beatin' (A minor) out a beautiful (C major) tune (E minor)
If you ever seen the cold
blue railroad tracks
(C major) Shinin' by the light of the moon (B major)
If you (E minor) ever felt the locomotive
shake the ground
I (A minor) know you don't have to (B major) be told (E minor)
Why I'm goin' down to
the railroad (B major) (E minor) tracks
And watch them (C major) lonesome (B major)
(E minor) boxcars roll
(A major) (E minor)
Verse 5
(A major)
Yeah, (E minor) I'm goin' down
to the railroad tracks
Watch them (C major) lonesome (B major) boxcars roll
