Em

G

Down the mountainside

Em

To the coastline

C

Past the angry tide

Em

The mighty diesel whines

G

And the tunnel comes

Em

And the tunnel goes

C

Around another bend

Em

The giant drivers roll

I rode the highball

I fired the Daylight

When I turned around 65

I couldn't see right

It was "Mr. Jones,

We've got to let you go

It's company policy

You've got pension though."

G

Roll on

Em

Southern Pacific

C

On your silver rails

Em

On your silver rails

Roll on

Southern Pacific

On your silver rails

Through the moonlight

I put in my time

I put in my time

Now I'm left to roll

Down the long decline

I ain't no brake man

Ain't no conductor

But I would be though

If I was younger

Roll on

Southern Pacific

On your silver rails

On your silver rails

Roll on

Southern Pacific

Roll on

On your silver rails
