[G] [C] [Gm]
I just came down from [Eb] Chippewa, had a station wagon and a hundred [F] dollars, thinking about
the girl I'd lost a [Gm] year before.
I hadn't seen her for some time, [Eb] thought I might go [Cm] on by, [F] when your memory came flooding
in and you [Gm] closed that door.
Wish I was a freight train, baby, [Eb] wish I was a diesel [Gm] locomotive, [F] I'd come a-whistling
down your track, [Gm] crashing in your [F] door.
Wish I was [Gm] a freight train, baby, [Eb] wish I didn't have a heart, [F] you need a shovel for
the coal, [Gm] just to get me started.
Wish I was a freight train, baby, [Eb] wish I was a freight train, [F] baby, wish I was a freight train.
[Gm]
Well, every time I talk to [Cm] you, I hear your jealous lies, [F] I feel like I've been left [Gm] abandoned
on some old railway side.
And every time I hear your [Eb] voice, my water just gets cold, [F] my stoker will not stoke,
[Gm] and my boiler will not boil.
Wish I was a freight train, baby, [Eb] wish I was a diesel [F] locomotive, I'd come a-whistling
down your track, [Gm] crashing in your door.
Wish I was a freight train, baby, [Eb] wish I didn't have a heart, [F] you need a shovel for the coal,
[Gm] just to get me started.

Well, every time I fell [Eb] behind, I could not get ahead, [F] I wish someone would hold the [Gm] lever

And every time I slip [Eb] behind, even further [Gm] back, [F] I wish some switchman would come [Gm] out
of the fog and change my track.
Wish I was a freight train, baby, [Eb] wish I was a diesel locomotive, [F] I'd come a-whistling
down your track, [Gm] crashing in your door.
Wish I was a freight train, baby, [Eb] wish I didn't have a heart, you [F] need a shovel for the coal,
