capo: 4

 C              C7 
Come along, my dear
     F               C
the time is growin' near.
               A                    D             G
We'll have to walk down where the field is over grown.
    C                      C7 
Consumption's claimed his life 
        F                 C
and we dare not miss the sight
            Am             G              C
Of the the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home.

          C             C7   
Well, we had some hard times 
       F        C
these last few years,
          Am          D                 G
Lost the farm almost lost our spirits, too.
          C                    C7 
Yeah, but it's the strangest thing F C when we heard that man sing, Am G C Oh, we knew somehow we'd make it through. Chorus: F F7 I can hear that whistle blow C that old train's a-movin' slow. D D7 G Sounds like it's cryin' for the singin' brakeman, too. C C7 Back to the sunny south he'll go F C and he'll never roam no more Am G C Here's the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home. Come here, my little son and let me hold you up. Want you to remember when you are grown, How your mama and your dad were so proud and so sad Watchin' the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home. repeat chorus
