                       G
Hark and listen to the whistle of the train
                 G*             Am
Pulling from the station to the land of the golden grain
                         C                      F
When we return again our friends will drink our health
               Am
'Cause there's no place here where there ain't such cheer 
       G                  D
As the land of the golden hell


INTERLUDE: Am  G  C  D  Am  Em  Am


                                G
Molly dear, I greatly fear that soon I will be gone
            G*                            Am
I am going away on a harvest train to the far off Saskatchewan
                               C                                F
To reap the grain on a western plain, where the buffalo used to roam
         Am                                     
And I'll leave you alone when you're arriving home
   G               D
To my dear calling boys


INTERLUDE: Am  G  C  D  Am  Em  Am


                                   G
Molly dear, when night is near and I am far away
                         G*               Am
With loving heart you'll do your part and for me you will pray
                                                C                F
When the kids are fed they go to bed and you'll stand out on the lawn
    Am                                     
You won't even sigh for your absent boy
       G            D
In the far Saskatchewan, yeah


INSTRUMENTAL: Am  G  C  D  Am  Em  (2x)  Am


                                    G
Molly dear, dry up your tears, I'll soon be home again
                          G*                    Am
My pockets lined with the gold I'll find in the fields of the golden grain
                     C                        F
Never far, I'll go a-soar to the far Saskatchewan
    Am                                     
For nearly a year my body was here
       G             D
In our little island home


INTERLUDE: Am  G  C  D  Am  Em  Am


                       G
Hark and listen to the whistle of the train
                        G*                Am
We are pulling from the station and we're homeward bound again
                         C                      F
When we return again our friends will drink our health
               Am                                     
'Cause there's no place here and there ain't such cheer
       G                  D
As the land of the golden hell
