Verse 1
The Tennessee (C major) Local
is (G major) a (C major) slow -movin' train,
(G major) but (C major) folks in Tennessee never
seem to complain,
they like a (F major) slow ride.
(C major) So they can see the countryside,
I (G major) said the Tennessee Local
is a (F major) smoky little, pokey (C major) little train.
You never have to worry
(G major) bout a (C major) jump in the track
They oil it with molasses,
(G major) that's what's (C major) holding it back
They like a (F major) slow ride,
so (C major) they can see the countryside
I (G major) said the Tennessee local
is a (F major) smoky (D minor) little, (C major) pokey little tram (F major) (C major)
It (G major) (F major) chugs along and hugs
along an (G minor) old rusty (C major) rail
It (F major) stops at every (D minor) hamlet to de (G minor) liver the (G major) mail
(C major) It (F major) slows at every (D minor) crossing
when it (G minor) comes to the bend
(C major) The (F major) engineer gets off
and has a (C major) chat with a friend
You count the cows and chickens
as (G major) you (C major) ride on (G major) your way
(C major) You (G major) (C major) read the Burma signs
and understand what they say
Cause it's a (F major) slow train
(C major) But you can see the whole (G major) terrain,
I said the Tennessee to local
is a (F major) smoky little pokey (G major) little train. (C major)
(B flat major) (F major) (C major)
(F major) (C major)
(G major) (D minor) (F major) (C major)
It (G major) chugs along (D minor) and hugs
along an (G major) old rusty rail
(C major) It (F major) stops at every (D minor) hamlet to de (G minor) liver the
The (C major) (G major) boiler (F major) leaks, the engine squeak (G minor) s,
the seats are (G major) all loose
(C major) But the (F major) Tennessee local
has a (G major) classic (C major) taboos
You count the (G major) cows and (C major) chickens
(G major) as you (C major) ride on your way
You read the Burma signs
an (G major) d understand (C major) what they say
Cause it's a (F major) slow terrain
But (C major) you can see the whole terrain
I (G major) said the Tennessee local
is a (F major) smoky (D minor) little, (F major) poky (C major) little train
I (G major) said, Tennessee local
(D minor) is a (F major) smoky little, pulky (C major) little train.
(F major) (C major)
