E
My Daddy was a rounder
Had to make himself some change
E7
Climbed down off the mountain
Shaved his head and caught a train
A G#m F#m
But I keep my skillet greasy
E A G#m E
Keep my lamp trimmed 'n' low
A G#m F#m E
My weary feet, these floors I walk
A B
But why I'll never know
E
And I hear echoes of his heart
B E
Beating back from distant lands
And I hear the lonesome whistle
B E
Of that train that stole my man
2.
E
And I cuddle to my child
Teach him to bear the shame
To take the blows
That choose the frows and
Earn an honest name
A G#m F#m E
But money's running low, you know?
A G#m E
No friends to help me through
A G#m F#m E
Just one last thing I can sell
A B
And that will have to do
E
But I feel hunger in my sunken cheeks
B E
In the tremble of my hand
And I feel the rumblin' of the wheels
B E
Of that train that stole my man
Bridge: E
G#m F#m E 3x

E
My mind just takes to ramblin'
As the day goes walkin' west
And Magnus comes a-crawlin'
Through that hole inside my breast
A G#m F#m E
And sorrow sings the simple song
A G#m E
That screams the whole night through
A G#m F#m E
A melody of him and me
A B
That never rang so true
E
And I see dark clouds on the rise
B E
And I see midgets in the sand
They paint my sight with visions
B E
Of that train that stole my man
Bridge: E
G#m F#m E 3x

E
And I dreamt I found his crossroads
B E
In the land of sticks and stones
Where the peggy worries of the heart
B E
Are worries so unknown
A G#m F#m E
He took me in his arms, you know
A G#m E
And tied me to his side
A G#m F#m E
Caught that first wind off the hills
A B
And further we did ride
E
Well I felt his touch upon my breast
B E
That unforgiving hand
But when I woke, could smell the smoke
B E
Of that train that stole my man
Bridge: E
G#m F#m E 3x

E
Now the wind runs through my skin
B E
And the rain runs through my eyes
Can't find no ground to hold my feet
B E
Lord knows how hard I tries!
A G#m F#m E
For come the dawn, I'll clean my teeth
A G#m E
And powder up my chest
A G#m F#m E
Take off this faded apron, babe
A B
And put on my Sunday best
E
To bind the strings to fix my heart
B E
I'm gonna look to holy lands
And lay my back down on the track
B E
Of that train that stole my man
