Well theres folks who sing songs about the prisons, the coal mines and the wars
B
I've got a song and a story i'd like to te--ll
E A E
For a long time now i've been knowin, on a long sad trip i'll goin'
B E
and a long train charlie's gonna take me back, to Moundsville
(Theres walk-ups to almost each chord in the next 2 verses)
Well a lotta new faces I see,yeah but very few will recognize me
And theres so many dreams in life I can't fufill
What i'd give just now to be free, death rows calling 1033
And the long train charlie's gonna take me back, to Moundsville
How my mind does wander back, to my momma and that tumbled down shack
To the blissfull days when mommma taught ,how to pray
But each night in my cell i cry, salvation has passed me by
And the long train charlies, gonna take me back, to Moundsville
Well the preacher just left my cell, well he talked about heaven and a hell
He talked about a way in life, i coulda been free
But i'll never be free no more, Death Row's calling 1044
I just wanna forget about that Long Chain Charlie, in Moundsville
Well i'll never more ride that Long Chain Charlie, in Moundsville
