[Intro]
G    D    Em    C
 
[Verse 1]
G                            D
Smokin' long black Cadillac, engine's windin' down
Em                                   C
Parked it up on the sidewalk like he owned the whole damn town
             G               D               G              C
I'd hear him talkin' to some chick through a thick ghost of smoke
          G                         D
Through a thicker haze of Southern Comfort and Coke
                     G                              D
He'd say girl you're hotter than the hinges hangin' off the gates of Hell
          Em                           C
Don't be afraid to turn to me baby, if he don't treat you well
       G           D        G                    C
And by he he meant me so I laughed and shook his hand
      G                                    D
He'd laugh a little bit louder as he would yell up at the band
 
[Chorus]
        G          D
Play a train song, pour me one more round
Em                                   C
   Make 'em leave my boots on on the day they lay me down
       G        D         G                   C
I am a runaway locomotive out of my one track   mind
        G                       D                  G D G
And I'm lookin' for any kind of trouble that I can find
 
[Verse 2]
             G                                D
I got this old black leather jacket, got this pack of Marlboro Reds
            Em                                  C
I got this stash here in my pocket, got these thoughts in my own head
             G              D               G              C
The right to run until I've gotta walk or until I've gotta crawl
         G                           D               G
Got this moment I'm in right now and nothin' else at all
 
[Chorus]
        G          D
Play a train song, pour me one more round
Em                                   C
   Make 'em leave my boots on on the day they lay me down
       G        D         G                   C
I am a runaway locomotive out of my one track   mind

[Verse 3]
         G                            D
And the television blizzard lights we looked around his place
             Em                              C
We found him cold there on the sofa a little smile across his face
             G                 D               G              C
And though I tried with all my sadness somehow I could never weep
      G                                 D
For a man who looked to me like he died laughin' in his sleep
 
[Chorus]
           G           D
Singin' a train song, drinkin' one last round
Em                                        C
   We made 'em leave his boots on on the day they laid him down
         G       D          G                    C
He was a runaway locomotive out of his one track   mind
        G    C             G    C
Play a train song, play a train song
       G     D
Play a train
