Troy Casser Daley - Paul Kelly - I Wish I Was A Train guitar chord

I Wish I was a Train- Troy Casser Daly & Paul Kelly

Tabbed by Bj Grace- bjthedj85@hotmail.com

This is my corrected version of the tab by Big Rock Candy. I thought the song

was in the right key but missed a few important chord changes.

*capo 2nd fret*

C F C

When I was a little boy I used to lie in my bed

F C G

and listen for the '9:09'

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

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

Chrous

F C

Roll on roll on into the dark night

F G

Leavin' all my troubles behind

F C Am

Carryin' my soul far far away

C

Oh every now and then

G C

I wish I was a train

I loaded trucks in Isa rode the dingo fences

cursed the ganger on the western line

Started throwin' punches in a bar at Charters Towers

They threw the book at me I did my time

Chorus

Bridge

F C

Cause a train don't weep a train don't feel

F C G

heartache sadness and pain

F C Am

And when I die just let my spirit ride

C G C

on the boxcar of an ever rollin' train

Chorus
