DOWN THERE BY THE TRAIN
C C7 F C
There's a place I know, Where the train goes slow
C C F G7
Where the sinners can be washed, In the blood of the lamb
F C F F
There's a river by the trestle, Over by Sinners Grove
C C7 G7 F C
Down where the willow and the dogwood grow
C G7
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
C F
Down ther by the train, Down there by the train
C G7 C
Down there, Where the train goes slow
F C F C
You can hear the whistle, You can hear the bell
C C7 F G7
F C F
And there's room for the forsaken, If you're there on time
C C7 F
You'll be washed of all your sins and all of your crimes
C G7
If you're down there by the train, Down there by the train
C F
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
C G7 C
Down there, Where the train, goes slow
C C7 F C
There's a golden moon that shines up throught the mist
C C F G7
And I know that your name, Will be on that list
F C F F
There's no eye for an eye, There's no tooth for a tooth
C G7 F
I saw Judas Iscariot carrying John Wilkes Booth
C G7
He was down there by the train, Down there by the train
C F
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
C G7 C
He was down where the train goes slow
C C7 F C
So if you live in darkness, And If you live in shame
C C7 F G7
All of the passengers, Will be treated the same
F C F F
Oh, And old Humpty Jackson, And Gyp the Blood will sing
C G7 F
And Charlie Witten is holding on to Dillenger's wings
C G7
They're both down there by the train, Down there by the train
C F
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
C G7 C
Down there where the train goes slow
C C7 F C
If you've lost all your hope, If you've lost all your faith
C C7 F G7
I know you can be cared for, And I know you can be safe
F C F F
And all of the shamefulls, And all of the whores
C G7 F
And even the soldier who pierced the side of the Lord
C G7
Is down there by the train, Down there by the train
C F
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
C G7 C
Down there where the train goes slow
C F C
Well I've never asked for forgivness, I've never said a prayer
C C7 F G7
Never given of myself, And I've never truly cared
F C F F
And I've hurt the ones who loved me, And I'm still raising Cain
C G7 F
I've taken the low road, And if you have done the same
C G7
Meet me down there by the train, Down there by the train
C F
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
C G7 F
Down there where the train goes slow
C G7
Meet me down there by the train, Down there by the train
C F
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
C G7 F
Down there where the train goes slow
