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,

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



     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,
