[E]
Can I train to [D] move along?
Can [E] I train to [D] move along?
[A] They're them tracks that whistle blowin'
Take you stranger on to [E] Santa Fe
[A] It seems like romance and [C] danger
Follow this here tall dark [E] stranger
All along the way
Well a train was runnin' through the night
Headed south to Santa Fe
[A] And in a fancy car with a private bar
And a personal valet
There was a bunch of cold eyed men
[C] Sittin' at a poker table
[E] Readin' the hot sticks all around
Old Louisiana Lou had a knife in his shoe
His dealer in the hand of cards
[A] An old stack of Lee Crockett had a gun in his pocket
He was sweatin' and bentin' hard
And over in the corner this Mexican [C] guy
Was a-goin' keepin' a patch on [E] his eye
With a long hard look around
And in the north we were over the street
And you walked in and said
Don't y'all get excited
[A] I know this here's a private game
And I know I won't invite it
But I got a roll to choke a [C] mule
I'm just about a big enough [E] fool
To lay it all right down
[F#] [A] And everybody nodded
[E] As the stranger took his [A] seat
He knew this bunch of cutthroats
[E] Would be mighty hard to beat
[A] As the stranger knew that the toughest two
[E] By far from where he sat
[D] Was a hot lady feather from South [B] Alabama
And a dude in a black felt hat
[E] And I'd train and [D] roll on
[E] And I'd train [D] and roll on
Well [A] put in practice
And execute that whistle blowin'
And you'd straighten your own
The [E] sound of faith
[A] It seems like romance
Is [C] dangerous, father, this here
Tall [E] dark stranger all the long way
Well the stranger sit down
He looked around at all them evil faces
[A] And the pot-bellied feather
Drew a pair of queens
But the stranger he drew aces
And he kept on raisin' it
Pushin' [C] his luck
He kept on winnin'
Like a runaway [E] truck
He was givin' him a beating
As the stakes got higher
And the Chinese kite
The stranger kept gettin' [A] hot
Till every cent everybody had
Was lyin' out in the pot
And then the stranger
Threw down a royal [C] flush
Somebody said, hey man
That's [E] enough, friend
I think you've been cheatin'
And the stranger picked the money up
And said, boys, I better run
And then [A] the pot-bellied feather
Pulled a razor out
Somebody pulled a gun
They said, you may think
You were sly, old [C] fox
You're gonna leave here in a long time
[E] But I said, we don't leave that money alone
Just about then the lights went out
And they all started [E] fussin'
Then the lights came on
The stranger was gone
And they all started [A] cussin'
And they searched that train
For front career
[C] That stranger he does not know
And then the stranger
Disappeared [E] and all their money was gone
[A] When the train pulled into station
With [E] the whistle blowin' loud
[A] A telegram was waitin'
From [E] the stranger for the crowd
[A] Said, thank you for the money, boys
And [E] don't feel too outdone
[D] Cause it takes a dog to know a dog
[B] I'm a howlin' son of a gun
[E] And that train [D] rolled on
[E] And that train [D] rolled on
[A] And that train rolled [E] on
And [A]
that train [C] rolled on
And that [E] train rolled [A#] [Am]
[E] on
