I heard the laughter _ _ at the [F] _ depot, _ _ _ but my [G] _ tears _ _ fell like [C] the rain _ when I saw them _ place _
that long [F] white casket _ _ in the baggage [C] coach _ _ [F]
of the [Am] evening [C] train. _ _
The _ baby's eyes _ are red [F] from weeping, _ _ _ its little [G] _ heart _ _ is filled [C] with pain. _
Oh daddy it cried, _ _ _ they're taking [F] mama _ _ _ away [C] from us _ _ [F]
on the evening [C] train. _ _ _

As I turned to walk _ away from [F] the depot, _ it seemed [G] I heard _ her call [C] my name, _ _
take care of my baby _ _ and tell [F] him, darling, _ _ that I'm going [C] _ home _ [F] _
on the evening [C] train.
_ I _ pray that God _ _ will give [F] me courage _ _ to carry [G] _ on _ till we meet [C] _ again. _ _
It's hard to know _ _ she's gone [F] forever, _ _ _ they're carrying [C] her home _ _ [F]
on the evening [C] train. _ _ _
