Tom: G

Introdução:

   G                       G7     C               G 
Come along, my dear, the time is growing near.
                                             G                           A                 A7       D         D7 
We'll have to walk down where the field is overgrown.
             G                                   G7                       C                         G 
Consumption's claimed his life and we dare not miss the sight
           Em                      D         D7               G 
Of the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home.
                               G               G7             C         G 
Well, we had some hard times these last few years,
               Em  G             A                   A7           D               D7 
Lost the farm, almost lost our spirits, too.
                                 G                       G7                                   C                 G 
Yeah, but it's the strangest thing  when we heard that man sing,
             Em                D                     D7                 G                 G7 
Oh, we knew somehow we'd make it through.
                     C                                                              G           Em 
I can hear that whistle blow  that old train's a-movin' slow.
                                                   G   Em           A             A7                       D 
Sounds like it's cryin' for that singing brakeman, too.
                                       G           G7               C                          G 
Back to the sunny south he'll go, and he'll never roam no more,
                   Em(G)                      D                 D7                             G 
Here's the train, oh hold me close, oh, sweetheart, do.
                     G                 G7  C             G 
Come here, my little one,   let me hold you up.
                                             G         A                     A7                     D         D7 
Want you to remember this day when you are grown,
                                   G                   G7                       C                         G 
How your mama and your dad were so proud and so sad
                               Em                        D                 D7     G 
Watching the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home.
Chorus
                   Em                    D               D7         G 
There goes the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home.
                     G           D                     C  G 
Oh-de-lay-ee, Ay-dee, oh- oo
