You know, I know a few secrets about [Bm] these guys.
You guys [G] want to hear a secret about the Reverend Horney?
[C#] [C] [B] This is a good one.
[G] This man is truly in love with country and Western music.
[B] [D#] [B]
[E]
Well, I hear that train a-crawlin', it's rollin' round the bend, and I ain't seen the sunshine since.
I don't know when, but I'm stuck up close to prison.
And time keeps draggin' on.
[B] That train keeps rollin', oh, that is sad.
[E]
When I was just a baby, my mama told me some, always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns.
[E] And I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.
[B] When I hear that whistle blowin', I hate my head.
[E] Well,

[B] [A]
[Em]
[G] I bet [B] all those rich folk are in fancy dining cars, probably [F#] drinkin' coffee and [E] smokin' big cigars.
I know I had it comin', I know I can't be free.
[B] Those people keep a-movin', and that's what's all [E] I do.

When they take me [B] from this prison and that railroad train is mine, you bet I am movin' farther, a little [Em]
farther down the line.
[E] Far from close to prison, that's where I want to stay.
[B] I let that lonesome whistle blow my [E] blues away.
[B] [E]
[F#]
[C] Man, I could hear you [D#m] guys singin' on that one.
