Train ritme1&2&3&4&5&6&7&8&
Intro lick or
Intro bluesharp
E
Well the midnight train was groanin’
Down by the depot rain
E
A guitar man in the corner
E
Tryin’ to ease his pain
A
He was playin’ in the liquor store
B C B E
Right beside Track Nine
E
Bottle lights were flickerin’
Like old neon signs
And the people came from everywhere
Boots draggin’ through the snow
A
Buyin’ whiskey by the dozen
B C B E
Just to hear that old boy blow
Chorus
A
That blues train rollin’
Smoke risin’ through the night
E
Singer sold out all the liquor
Before the morning light
A
Yeah the bottles all gone empty
A
Cash drawer sang cha-ching
B
Station full of drifters
B C B E
While the guitar strings would ring
E
The cashier kept on laughin’
Said “Man, you brought the crowd”
Railroad workers stompin’
And singin’ way too loud
A
That blues train rollin’
B C B E
Smoke risin’ through the night
E
Singer sold out all the liquor
Before the morning light
One old woman cried softly
When he sang about goodbye
A
Even the freight conductor
B C B E
Had tears in his eyes
E
He sang about hard livin’
Cheap wine and broken dreams
About ridin’ every railroad
Where the cold north whistle screams
A
This blues train keeps on rolling
B C B E
Rolling down the line
Chorus
A
That blues train rollin’
Smoke risin’ through the night
E
Singer sold out all the liquor
Before the morning light
A
Yeah the bottles all gone empty
A
Cash drawer sang cha-ching
B
Station full of drifters
B C B E
While the guitar strings would ring
Solo bluesharp A

Vers
E
Now the sunrise hit the platform
Train pullin’ out slow
He packed his old guitar case
Had another town to go
A
But folks still talk about him
That man who drank the liquor store dry
B C B E
And sang the blues train, his blues train song
Chorus
A
That blues train rollin’
Smoke risin’ through the night
E
Singer sold out all the liquor
Before the morning light
A
Yeah the bottles all gone empty
A
Cash drawer sang cha-ching
B
Station full of drifters
B C B E
While the guitar strings would ring
Fade out solo bluesharp A
