version 3
On the Fadd9 the bass guitar stays on the G making it an Fadd9/G,
but for the guitar it's better just adding the G on the 1st string.
For Verse 4 the riff is played as F and G chord arpeggios:
G = x x x 12 12 10
F = x x x 10 10 8
Again, the bass guitar stays on the G, making it a G to an F/G chord.

automatically suggest and use the typed shapes shown below:

version 9
[Verse 1]
G7
Take the last train to Clarksville
And I'll met you at the station.
You can be there by four thirty
C7
'Cause I've made your reservation. Don't be slow.
Oh no, no, no!
Oh no, no, no!
[Verse 2]
G7
'Cause I'm leaving in the morning
And I must see you again.
We'll have one more night together
C7
'Til the morning brings my train and I must go.
Oh no, no, no!
Oh no, no, no!
D7
And I don't know if I'm ever coming home.
[Verse 3]
G7
Take the last train to Clarksville
I'll be waiting at the station.
We'll have coffee-flavored kisses
C7
And a bit of conversation, Oh-oh-oh
Oh no, no, no!
Oh no, no, no!
[Verse 4]
G7
Take the last train to Clarksville
Now I must hang up the phone
I can't hear you in this noisy
C7
Railroad station all alone, I'm feelin' low.
Oh no, no, no!
Oh no, no, no!
D7
And I don't know if I'm ever coming home.
REPEAT FIRST VERSE AND FADE OUT
