[B] Doo
[G]
[F#]
doo doo doo, [C#] doh dee oh doh, [D#] doh dee [G#] oh doh, [C#] dee oh doh.
All around the water tanks, [F#]
waiting [C#] for a train.
[F#] A thousand [C#] miles away from home, [D#]
sleeping in [G#] the rain.
[C#] I walked up to a brakeman, [F#] said give him a [C#] line of talk.
[F#] He says if you've [C#] got money, [D#] I'll see that you [G#] don't walk.
[C#] I haven't got a nickel, [F#] not a penny can I [C#] show.
[F#] Get off, get off the [C#] railroad bum and he [D#] [G#] slammed the [C#] boxcar door.
[G#] [C#]
[G#]
[C#] He put me off in Texas, [F#] stayed out the early [C#] love.
The [F#] wide open spaces all [C#] around me, [D#] the moon and [G#] stars up above.
[C#] Nobody seems to want me, [F#] or lend [C#] me a helping hand.
[F#] I'm on my way [C#] from Frisco, [D#] going back to [G#] Dixieland.
[C#] Though my pocketbook is empty, my [F#] heart is [C#] full of pain.
[F#] I'm a thousand [C#] miles away from home, [D#] [G#] waiting [C#] for a train.
Doo doo doo doo, [G#] doh dee oh doh, doh dee [C#] oh doh, dee oh doh.
