Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
 
[Verse 1]
G       C    D   E  F
'Twas a dark stormy night
G      C     D  E    F
As the train rattled on
        C              C7      F
All the passengers had gone to bed
F        G                C           Am
Except a young man with a baby in his arms
        D7                      G
Who sat there with a bowed-down head
 
 
[Verse 2]
D   C D E    F
The innocent one
D     C  D   E    F
began crying just then
   C               C7          F
As though its poor heart would break
    F         G                C              Am
One angry man said, "Make that child stop its noise
         D7          G     C
For it's keeping all of us awake.
 
D C D E F
D C D E F
D C D E G6sus D E F#dim F
 
NOTE: Lower case letters, play note not the chord
The easiest way to do this is finger the C chord and pluck the open G string. Then strum the C chord once.
Then using your pinky to hold down the 5th string third fret like you are going to play Cadd9 and pluck only
that string, then the open e string. Then strum the F chord once.
