C                              G7Freight train, freight train,  coming round the bend,
G7                               CFreight train, freight train,    gone      again,
E7                             FOne of these days,  turn that train around
    C        G                  CAnd go back to -  -   -  o,     my hometown.


(Chorus)

C                   G7One more place I'd like to be,
G7                  COne more place I'd love to see,
E7                          FTo watch them Ol Blue Ridge Mountains climb
C      G       CWhen I ride Ol Number nine.


(Chorus)

C                G7When I die Lord, bury me deep
G7                 CDown at the end of Chestnut Street
E7                   FWhere I can hear Ol Number nine
C      G         CAs she comes on down the line.


(Chorus)
