[Verse 1]
D          A
When I was young,
  D        G      D
I spent my summer days.
               A
Playing on the track.
    D            A
The sound of the wheels,
D              G
rolling on the steel.
        D
Took me out, took me back.
 
[Chorus]
    G          D
Big train from Memphis,
    G          D
big train from Memphis,
         A           D
now it’s gone, gone, gone,
A           D
gone, gone, gone.
 
[Verse 2]
              A
Like no one before,
   D         G
he let out a roar.
    D                   A
And I, just had to tag along.
     D               A
Each night I went to bed,
         D            G
with the sounds in my head.
        D
And the dream, was a song.
 
[Chorus]
    G          D
Big train from Memphis,
    G          D
big train from Memphis,
         A           D
now it’s gone, gone, gone,
A           D
gone, gone, gone.

[Verse 3]
                A
Well I rode ’em in.
    D         G
And back out again.
    D                         A
You know, what they say about trains.
    D          A
But I’m tellin you,
          D                  G
when that Memphis train came through.
         D
This old world was not the same.
 
[End-Chorus]
    G          D
Big train from Memphis,
    G          D
big train from Memphis,
         A           D
now it’s gone, gone, gone,
A           D
gone, gone, gone.
