E                        B
I've been riding on this train 
         F#m             A
Drinking whiskey for the pain just
E                B           A 
Another good ol' boy headed home 
E                B
And every town I see 
         F#m            A
Seems to take a part of me 
E                         B            A  
That's the price that you pay when you roam 
       F#m        C#m

Well I cry when I have to 
      D   A      B
And I lie when I can 
       E  G#       C#m  A
But I die a little slower 
       E     B         E
On the train to Birmingham 
E                       B
I got holes in both my shoes 
      F#m                 A
Got  a guitar full of blues 
E                    B       A
And a one way ticket for my remedy 
E                          B
It's the same ol' lonesome song 
          F#m                A
I've been singing all night long 
E                   B          A
Hey, porter, are we out of Tennessee 
       F#m        C#m
Well I cry when I have to 
      D   A      B
And I lie when I can 
       E  G#       C#m  A
But I die a little slower 
       E     B         E
On the train to Birmingham 

SOLO

E                           B
Well every year I take this train 
   F#m            A
To Alabama in the rain 
E                        B             A
When I get that lonesome feelin' in my bones 
E                     B
I never get to Birmingham 
            F#m              A
But gettin' there ain't the plan 
       E             B        A                      
I just like the feel of going home 
       F#m        C#m
Well I cry when I have to 
      D   A      B
And I lie when I can 
       E  G#       C#m  A
But I die a little slower 
       E     B         E
On the train to Birmingham 
       E     B  A   B    E
On the train to Birmingham
