Mother Is On That Train Chords by Ernest Franklin

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [G] To me this recording wouldn't be complete
_ _ _ I didn't dedicate something
_ in memory _ of my mother _ _ _ _
the late
_ [G] _ Estella Franklin _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ Why I know [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
[A] that mother _ is on that train
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ That whistle blow
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I _ heard _ the _ _ fireman ring the bell _ _ _
_ _ And _ [A] I, I thought I [D] _ heard _ _
_ _ the conductor _ _ holler
_ _ _ _ He [E] said all aboard _ _ _
All aboard [A] and farewell _ _
But oh, we're running
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Down [G] _ to the station _ _
_ _ _ _ _ And I [G] thought I _ _ _ _ _
heard somebody call my name _ _
_ _ _ But he said [D] son _
you _ _ _ don't have to worry
_ _ _ [D] Because mother
_ _ _ _ [A] mother _
stepped on that train
_ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Oh, _ _ _ mother _ _
_ _ _ stepped on that train
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
She bought a ticket
with _ _ heartaches and pains
_ Yeah, _ _ [G] mother _ _ _ _
_ _ stepped on that train _
_ _ She kept on [E] calling _
_ _ calling on [A] Jesus' name
_ Yeah, _ _ [A] _ _
_ before [D] my _ _ _
before my mother died _ _ _
_ She [G] said son _ _ _
_ I've got to leave for a while _ _
_ But oh, we'll meet again _
Then _ [E] my mother
_ [A] _
she stepped on that [D] train _ _ _
_ [D] I think I'll say it one more time _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ stepped on that train _ _
_ _ She [D] bought a ticket _
with _ _ heartaches and pains _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ Stepped on that train
_ _ _ She [E] kept on calling
She kept calling
calling on [A] Jesus' name _ _ _
Before _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ mother passed away
She _ [G] said son _
_ we'll meet again
_ We'll meet again
_ We'll meet again _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
one day
_ And then my mother
[D] _ my [Bm] sweet darling [E] mother
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] stepped on that train
_ [G] _ _ [D] _ _ _ My mind goes back to a few [G] days ago _ _ _
_ [D] when I was one of nine children
[D] _
_ [G] standing around the bedside _ _ _
watching mother go [D] home _ _ _ _
_ And I just didn't think I could make it without mama
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ But it's surprising
_ what you can do _ _
when you turn it over to the hands of the Lord _ _ _
It seemed like I [Dm] heard a voice _ _ _
from out of nowhere _ that said
_ _ [D] I'll never leave you alone _
And I'm a witness today
_ that God has never left me alone
_ _ _ Oh [G] mother _ _ _ _ _
stepped on that train _ _ _
Oh _ _ mother
_ [D] stepped _ on that train _ _ _ _
_ Oh my mother
[G] _ _
_ Sometimes she thought it was all in vain
_ But [E] she kept on calling _
_ _ _ Jesus' [A] name _ _
Just _ _ _ _ before [D] my
_ _ _ Before mother passed away
[Dm] _ She said oh [G] we'll meet again
_ [G] I'll meet you again
_ We'll meet again one day
_ And [D] then mother _
_ my _ sweet darling mother _ [A] _ She stepped _ _
_ She stepped
She _ _ stepped _ _ _ _ on that train
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [N] _ _
