Tune down 1/2 step Intro DD Now when you get a big train runnin' G D It sure is hard to stop D And when I get to drinkin', Lord A I drink up every drop D That demon engineer G D Shovels his coal all day long D When the moon is drippin' from the sky A D He really pours it onVerso 1:
D There's a freight train of trouble on my back A As long as I keep livin', they keep layin' down new track D G D No matter how far ahead I get, somehow it always feels A D Like there's a freight train of trouble on my heelsD Now, Lord, won't you tell me G D Tell me what will it take D To outrun this torn boxcar A Lies chained to my mistakes D I can hear temptation blowin' G A Like a whistle in the wind D Just when you think that coast is clear A D It comes pourin' through againVerso 2:
