[Verse 1]
C
She pulled out-ta Mo-bile_ in the pour-in rain_ Mov-in thru the dark-ness_ like a hur-ri-cane_
     F                                   G                      C
From southern gulf port waters_  to the Cumber-lands so green_  Louis-ville by Nash-vill and
                         F                       G                      C
all points in be-tween_  Pound-in out a rhythm_  mak-in up lost time_   Head-in for that
Blue-grass state of mine_
 
 
[Chorus]
F                                                                        G
White smoke a roll-in_  whistle a blow-in_  Listen to her engine keep-in time
                          C
Ken-tuck-y____   bor-der line_
 
[Verse 2]
Mont-gom-ery by morn-in_  Birm-ing-ham by noon_  On-ward thru the timeber_  up-ward to the
             F                                                          C
moon_   Her lone-some whistle cries_  a low and sad re-frain_  Like the boys down on Beale Street_
                       F                                C
sing-in of the pain_   No one is gon-na stop her_  from her appoint-ed rounds_  This train is
mov-in on she's glor-y bound_
 
 
[Chorus]
F                                                                        G
White smoke a roll-in_  whistle a blow-in_  Listen to her engine keep-in time
                          C
Ken-tuck-y____   bor-der line_
 
[Verse 3]
Her lungs are full of fire_  breath-in burn-in coal_  A ragg-in lo-co-motion_  like thunder when it rolls_
F                             G                       C
Sing-in for the might-y_  who cast her molten steel_  Drove the spike and laid the rail to ride
                                   F                             G
to ride be-neath her wheels_   The pride of our nation_  she's a mon-u-ment to them_
C
A Southern belle that might-y L & N_
 
[Chorus]
F                                                                        G
White smoke a roll-in_  whistle a blow-in_  Listen to her engine keep-in time
                          C
Ken-tuck-y____   bor-der line_
 
[Chorus]
F                                                                        G
White smoke a roll-in_  whistle a blow-in_  Listen to her engine keep-in time

If anyone wants to do it in B like the original, just use G C D instead and capo up to 4th fret. But the chord changes are correct! 😁
