[E] [G] [F#]
[G] [F#] I [B]
hear the train comin' and rollin' around again.
[E] I see sunshine glistenin' on the way.
[A] Lord, I've got me four friends and I'm gonna be alright.
[Em]
[E] [F#] And that train keeps rollin' [E] on down this land.
[B]
Let's give a big hand to [F#] June Carter.
[B]
[F#] Tell her the name of Mother Maybelle, the Carter family.
[C#]
[F#] [C#] I keep my eyes wide open, [F#] oh.
I need a little help, Lord.
[C#] No, no, no, I'm not.
[F#]
Tell the Tennessee [B] Green, Marshall Grant, Paul Brooks and Debbie F.
Connell.

[G#]
[Am] [D#]
[N]
[B] [F#] [E]
The Sadler brothers.
[D#] [B]
[A] [B] [F#] Comin' down, down, [A] down.
A plane [E] went by her.
Blurr, blurr, blurr.
Blurring up my heart.
Blurring up my heart.
[F#] Yeah!
Mr.
Carl Perkins.
Well, when I was baby, my mama told me,
and I want you to be a good boy,
and I want you to play with [B] guns,
when I shot a man in Rio.
I shot him just for [F#] one good time.
[C#] Now that train keeps a-rollin',
I hang my head [F#] down in pride.
[D]
Johnny Uma [G] was a [Gm] rebel,
[A] he roamed to the [D] west.
Did Johnny Uma, [G] the rebel,
he [A]
wandered [D] alone.
[B] He got fightin' mad, [F#] this rebel had.
He [D] packed [F#m] no stars, he wondered [G] why,
when the only [Em] law was a hook and [D] a draw.
The rebel, Johnny Uma.
[C#]
[F#] Yeah, boy!
I want to thank you for being so good to us.
I'd like to say a special hello
to all the men here at the prison
that are not with us tonight,
that they couldn't find a key to the door or something,
they couldn't let a bunch of them out here.
I wish every one of you could have been out here with us,
all you guys.
I understand they're piping the show in
to your cell or somewhere,
that's supposed to be listening,
maybe, it's not closed circuit television
that you have in here, is it?
[D] Anyway, hello to all you fellas
that can't see the show tonight,
we wish you could all have been here.
We have had a ball, have [F#] we not?
Well, if they freed me from this prison,
if that railroad train was mine,
then I'd move it on a little farther down the line.
Far from bullshit prison,
that's where I want to stay.
[C#] And I'd let that lonesome whistle
blow my blues [F#]
away.
Hey!
[B]
