Tab by: Christopher Drout
INTRO: [Em] [C(add)9] [G] [D] (x2)
Got a [G]guitar [C9],
Got a [G]guitar on my [C9]back
And I'm [Em]standing on this [D]lonesome railroad [G]track
Train's a [G]coming [C9]
It'll [G]be here ‘fore too [C9]long
But I [Em]don't think I can [D]stop it with a [G]song
Girl that's [Em]kind of the [C9]way I'm [G]feeling [D]
[Em]Trying to [C9]stop your leaving [G][D]
Got a [G]pebble [C9]
Got a [G]pebble in my [C9]hand
And I [Em]toss it out into the [D]middle of the Rio [G]Grand
But the River keeps [G]running [C9]
Don't even [G]know that I'm [C9]around
I could [Em]throw in a million [D]more and not slow it [G]down
Girl that's [Em]kind of the [C9]way, I'm [G]feeling [D]
[Em]Trying to [C9]stop your leaving [G]
[Em] [C9] [G]There's nothing I [D]wouldn't try
[Em] [C9] [G]If I thought it would [D]change your mind [Em]
You don't [G]love me [C9]
you don't [G]love me any [C9]more
And I [Em]know as soon as [D]you walk out that [G]door
Train's a [G]coming [C9]
River's [G]running [C9]
Train's a [G]coming, rivers [C9]running
Pains a [G]coming, tears are [C9]running
And that's [Em]kind of the [C9]way I'm feeling [G][D]
Knowing [Em]I couldn't [C9]stop your leaving [G][D]
