[F]
Last thing I [Bb] remember about [F] my daddy, before he left [Bb] he bought me a little [C] toy train.
[F] And I remember [Bb] smiling at him [F] sadly, then before he turned [Bb] to walk out in [C] the rain,
He said, son [F] I'm gonna ride [Bb] a big toy [F] train, round the world [Bb] and back again,
[F] But mama, when is daddy [C] coming back?
He said, son [F] he's gonna ride a [Bb] big toy train, [F] and [Bb] he'll be back [Gm] again,
Just as soon as [Bb] daddy runs [Gm] out [F] of track.
I spent my boyhood [Bb] days growing up [F] without him, most of the time I [Bb] spent looking down [C] the track,
[F] And every day [Bb] I'd ask my mom [F] about him, mom I ain't had [Bb] time to make [C] it back.
She said, son [F] he's riding on a [Bb] big toy train, [F] round the world [Bb] and back again,
[F] But mama, when is daddy coming [C] back?
She said, son [F] he's riding on a [Bb] big toy train, [F] and he'll be [Gm] back again,
Just as soon as daddy runs [F] out of track.
[G] Every day [C] I'd hear that whistle [G] blowing, and every day [C] I'd watch my mama [D] turn gray,
[G]
And I was on [C] those roads she [G] started going, and I cheered her up [C] before she passed [D] away,
I said, [G] mom he's riding on [C] a big toy [G] train, round the world [C] and back [G] again,
But son, when is daddy coming [D] back?

[Am] Just as [C] soon as daddy runs out [G] of track.

back.
