Freight Train Chords

[Verse]
Am
Well I just came down from Chebawai
      F
Had a stationwagon and a hundred dollars
      G                                     Am
I was thinking about the girl I lost a year before
 
And I hadn't seen her for some time
      F
And I thought that I might go on by
          G
When your memory came flooding in
        Am
And you closed that door
 
[Chorus]
Am
Wish I was a freight train baby
             F
Wish I was a diesel locomotive
         G
I'd come whistl'in down your track
Am
Crash'in in your door
Am
Wish I was a freight train baby
              F
Wish I didn't have a heart
                 G
And you'd need a shovel for the coal
               Am
Just to get me started
 
Wish I was a freight train baby
             E
Wish I was a freight train
 
Am
Well every time I talk to you
 
And I hear you jealous lies
            F                G
I feel like I have been left abandoned
        Am
On some old railway siding
 
And everytime I hear you voice
   F
My water just gets cold
   G
My stoker will not stoke
       Am
And my boiler will not boil
 
[Chorus]
Am
Wish I was a freight train baby
             F
Wish I was a diesel locomotive
         G
I'd come whistl'in down your track
Am
Crash'in in your door
Am
Wish I was a freight train baby
              F
Wish I didn't have a heart
                 G
And you'd need a shovel for the coal
               Am
Just to get me started
 
Wish I was a freight train baby
             E
Wish I was a freight train
 
Am
Well everytime I fell behind
      F
And I could not get ahead
       G
I wish someone would pull the lever
                     Am
And give me a little sand
 
And everytime I slip behind
     F
Even further back
            G
I wish some switchman would
                        Am
Come out of the fog and change my track
 
[Chorus]
Am
Wish I was a freight train baby
             F
Wish I was a diesel locomotive
         G
I'd come whistl'in down your track
Am
Crash'in in your door
Am
Wish I was a freight train baby
              F
Wish I didn't have a heart
                 G
And you'd need a shovel for the coal
               Am
Just to get me started
 
Wish I was a freight train baby
             E
Wish I was a freight train
