Song : F


Bb F
Freight train, freight train, goin’ so fast
Bb
Freight train, freight train, goin’ so fast
D7 Eb
please don't tell what train I'm on
Bb F Bb
So they won't know where I've gone

Bb F
When I’m dead and in my grave
Bb
No more good times here I'll crave
D7 Eb
Place the stones at my head and feet
Bb F Bb
And tell them all that I'm gone to sleep

Bb F
When I die, lord, bury me deep
Bb
Way down on old Chestnut Street
D7 Eb
So I can hear old Number Nine
Bb F Bb
As she comes rolling by

Bb F
When I die, Lord, bury me deep
Bb
Way down on old Chestnut Street
D7 Eb
Place the stones at my head and feet
Bb F Bb
And tell them all that I'm gone to sleep
