Troy Cassar Daley - I Wish I Was A Train
(capo 2nd fret)
(verse 1)
C F - C
When I was a little boy I used to lie in my bed,
F C G
and listen for the nine-0-nine,
F C
It never ran on Christmas or the day that Jesus died,
G C
but every other day it ran on time,
C F C
It always made me lonesome but it brought me comfort,
F C G
and what it did to me I can't explain,
F C
And as I wonder through this harsh and gentle world,
G C
Oh every now and then I wish I was a train,
(chorus)
F C
Roll on roll on into the dark night,
F G
Leavin' all my troubles behind,
F C Am7
Carryin' my soul far far away,
C G C
Oh every now and then, I wish I was a train,
F C
I loaded trucks in Isa rode the dingo fences,
F C G
cursed the ganger on the western line,
F C
Started throwin' punches in a bar at Charters Towers,
G C
They threw the book at me I did my time,
(bridge)
F C
Cause a train don't weep a train don't feel,
F C G
heartache sadness and pain,
F C Am7
And when I die just let my spirit ride,
C G C
on the boxcar of an ever rollin train,
(chorus)
F C
Roll on roll on into the dark night,
F G
Leavin' all my troubles behind,
F C Am7
Carryin' my soul far far away,
C G C
Oh every now and then, I wish I was a train,
F C
I loaded trucks in Isa rode the dingo fences,
F C G
cursed the ganger on the western line,
F C
Started throwin' punches in a bar at Charters Towers,
G C
They threw the book at me I did my time,
