The Train Carrying Jimmie Rodgers Home
by Greg Brown from: If I had known Essential recordings 1980-1996
[Verse 1]
G G7 C G
Come along my dear the time is growing near
Em A7 D D7
I want you to walk down to where the field is over grown
G G7 C G
Consumption's claimed his life and we dare not miss the sight
Em D D7 G
Of the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home
[Verse 2]
G G7 C G
We've had some hard times these last few years
Em A7 D D7
Lost our farm - almost lost our spirits, too
G G7 C G
But it's the strangest thing when we hear that brakeman sing
Em D D7 G
we knew that some how we'd made it through.
[Chorus]
C
I can hear that whistle blow
G
That old train is rollin' slow
Em A7 D D7
Sounds like its crying for the singing brakeman too
G G7 C G
Down to the sunny south he'll go and he'll never roam no more
Em D D7 G
Here comes the train oh hold me close oh sweetheart, do
[Verse 3]
G G7 C G
Come my little son and let me hold you up
Em A7 D D7
I want you to remember this day when you are grown
G G7 C G
How your mama and your dad were so proud and so sad
Em D D7 G
Watching the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home
Em D D7 G
There goes the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home
[Outro]
C G D D7 G
(Yodel away here...)
