Verse 1
(G major) Well lightning struck at midnight
(D major) with the thunder (G major) (D major) and the (G major) rain
(D major) My (G major) sleep was interrupted
by the rhythm of (D major) a train (G major)
(D major) I asked of the conductor where
(C major) this old train was bound
(G major) He punched my (D major) ticket then (G major) he whispered, (D major)
"Memphis (G major) Town"
(C major) But there
Verse 2
ain't no train
to Mem (G major) phis anymore
You've got to take the highway
(D major) when you go
Well them (G major) rusty tracks from Nashville
Lay be (C major) side that stretch of (C sharpdim) road
But there (D major) ain't no train to Memphis any
(G major) more

Verse 3
Well I pinched (G major) myself and crossed
my (D major) heart to see if it was (G major) real
Or was I just imagining
the grind (D major) ing of the (G major) wheels
(D major) I swore I heard that whistle
and (C major) the clic- kity clack
As I rode (G major) that phantom streamline
on a (D major) west bound track (G major)
Verse 4
Because there (C major) ain't no train
(G major) to Memphis anymore
You've got to take (D major) the

Well them rusty (G major) tracks from Nashville
Lay be (C major) side that stretch (C sharpdim) of road
But there (D major) ain't no train to Memphis (G major) any more

Well we (G major) cruised into the delta like
we woke up (D major) from a dream (G major)
(D major) I felt (G major) a bit confused 'cause I
was (D major) blinded by the steam (G major)
Well I said, "I come from Nashville
and I (C major) just got off the train"
And that (G major) driver looked at me as (C major) if he
thought (D major) I was in (G major) sane
Verse 6
Because there (C major) ain't (D major) no (C major) train
(C sharpdim) to (G major) Memphis anymore
(D major) You've (G major) got to take the highway
(C major) when you go (D major)
Well them (G major) rusty tracks from Nashville
Lay beside (C major) that stretch of (C sharpdim) road
But there (D major) ain't no train to
