Fear Of Trains Chords

(ver. 1)
Magnetic Fields
[INTRO]
G  F   C
 
[VERSE 1]
           G               F              C
It was the army train that took her daddy from her
           G                F              C
It was the bible train that took her momma too
         Am                         Dm    C   G
And that high loud whistle made her horse run away
        G                   F                C
But the straw the broke the camel's back was you
 
[VERSE 2]
           G                     F             C
It was the government train that took away her childhood
           G        F             C
It was the KKK that took away her past
           Am                    Dm      C   G
It was the white man's will that hers be broken
         G                   F             C
But that barefoot girl could run too fast
 
[CHORUS]
C                                     Am
Because the world's too cold for a girl like that with a
C                            G
Blackfoot soul  and a cowboy hat
     C                              Am
Everything she loved went down the dragon track
                  C        G    F   C
She had a fear of trains
 
[BRIDGE]
C                         G
In the beet fields of Montana
Dm                          Am
She's always coming on dead rails
C                             G
to break the plow and whisper "Honey,
Dm                        Am
bound to live is bound to fail"
C                        G
And in a park in San Francisco
Dm                          Am
her momma shrieks about the Lord
C                                  G
And down the dead rails there's an echo
Dm                        Am
The wind is whistling all-aboard
 
[CHORUS]
C                                     Am
Because the world's too cold for a girl like that with a
C                            G
Blackfoot soul  and a cowboy hat
     C                              Am
Everything she loved went down the dragon track
                  C        G    F   C
She had a fear of trains
 
[VERSE 3]
           G                     F             C
It was the wagon train that took away her country
           G                     F             C
It was the oil train that took away her land
           Am                    Dm      C   G
She could have been the belle of the ponderosa
           G                     F             C
but that was not the fat man's plan
 
[CHORUS]
C                                     Am
Because the world's too cold for a girl like that with a
C                            G
Blackfoot soul  and a cowboy hat
     C                              Am
Everything she loved went down the dragon track
                  C        G    F   C
She had a fear of trains
