[Am] [Am] [E7] [E7] [Am]
[Am] Sixteen miles from Arkadelphia
[E7] Right near the Texas border
[E7] Traffic was stopped at a railway crossing
I [E7] took it to the [Am] shoulder [Am]
I [Am] stoked the kettle, I put it to the metal
I [F] shook the gravel loose
I [E7] missed the train but I was happy with
A [E7]* glimpse of the ca-[Am]boose
‘Cause I like [Am] trains, I like [F] fast [E7] trains
I like [E7] trains, that call out through the [Am] rain [Am]
I like [Am] trains, I like [F] sad trains
I like [E7] trains, that whisper your [Am] name [Am]
[Am] I was born on a Greyhound bus, my [E7] momma was a diesel engine
They [E7] tried to put me behind the wheel
[E7] But I wouldn’t [Am] let them [Am]
You [Am] should have seen the look in their eyes
And [F] how it turned to tears
[E7] When I finally told them
I [E7]* wanna be an engi-[Am]neer
‘Cause I like [Am] trains, I like [F] fast [E7] trains
I like [E7] trains, that call out through the [Am] rain [Am]
I like [Am] trains, I like [F] sad trains
I like [E7] trains, that whisper your [Am] name [Am]
Now you [F] think that I’ve got someone new, but [G] darlin’ that ain’t true
[F] I could never love another [E7]* woman besides you
It’s [Am] not some dewy-eyed darlin’, darlin’
That’s [F] gonna drive you insane
But [E7]* sound of a big ol’ [Am] train
‘Cause I like [Am] trains, I like [F] fast [E7] trains
I like [E7] trains, that call out through the [Am] rain [Am]
I like [Am] trains, I like [F] sad trains
I like [E7] trains, that whisper your [Am] name [Am]
I like [E7] trains, that whisper [E7]
[E7]* Whisper your [Am] name [Am]*
