G
I went down to the station

Just to take a ride
G
I went down to the station
D
Just to take a ride
A7
Found myself on a flatcar
D
Yesterday behind
Verse 2:
Pullin' out from the platform
There was no brass band
I pulled out from the platform
Nobody raise a hand
There were no tears or regrets
>From the runaway train
Train, train, train, train
(instrumental, same pattern as verses)
Verse 3:
Got no sand in my pocket
You know I ain't tied down
With no sand in my pocket
Never do sit down
I'm just a cross—tie walker
Where the freight trains run
Run, run, run, run
(instrumental, same pattern as verses)
Verse 4:
If you see me a—comin'
Don't you waste my time
If you see me a—comin'
Don't you waste my time
'Cause there're more miles between us
Than the Santa Fe line
Run, run, run
(hum 2 lines of a verse, then play D continuously and fade)
