Marty Robbins A Man And A Train chords
Start Jamming...
A man and a train, [Eb] a train and a [Bb] man,
[Eb] they both [Bb] try [Eb] to run as [Bb] far and as fast as [Ab] they
can.
[G] But a man's not a train, and a train's [Eb] not a man.
A [F] man can do things that a train [Bb] never can.
Going up a mountain, even halfway [Eb] to the top, the minute that [F] a train runs out of steam,
it's [Bb] gonna stop.
But it's a different story when a man runs [Eb] out of steam.
He still can go [F] a long, long way [Cm] on nothing but [Bb] a dream.
Going across the country, when a train runs [Eb] out of track, it has to stop [G] and turn around
and then start [Bb] hitting back.
But many miles from nowhere, out where all the [Eb] tracks have gone, a man who's got [F] himself
a dream can still keep [Bb] going [F] on.
[Fm] [Bb] Said, don't try to stop me, don't try to stop me, [Eb] cause nobody can.
[F] I'm a dream, a beautiful dream, and [Bb] that makes me a [F] man.
[Bb] Don't try to stop me, don't try to stop [Eb] me, cause nobody can.
[F]
I'm a dream, and [Eb] that makes me, makes me [Bb] a man.
[Ab] [Bb]
[N]
