Stone Foxes - Passenger Train (Jam in the van)
Howdy folks, this is my first tab so feel free to comment. I was looking
through the tabs for The Stone Foxes and I couldn't find this one so I decided to come up with my
own.
C
You say I'm an evil man,
G
For stealin' from a passenger train,
Am
But have mercy on this ol' boy,
F
I sweat that I can explain.
Am
I took the diamond, from the safe of your soul,
G
I dug deep and wide and put it down in a hole,
Am
I put it down there so nobody would know,
F
That I tried to turn back but I couldn't let go.
[Chorus]
C
Times were hard, they brought me down,
G
At least I can say that I tried,
Am
Well I aint that bad, well I aint that good,
F
I just did what I did to get by.
F
I did what I did to get by.
C
Though it wasn't long ago,
G
You said I would do what I done,
Am
That I'd bear the pain of the passenger train,
F
And live my life on the run.
Am
I tried to hide from the things in my mind,
G
The night time was cold but the darkness was kind,
Am
As I went down, and laid on my side,
F
I closed my eyes and I dreamed that I died,
[Chorus]
C
Times were hard, they brought me down,
G
At least I can say that I tried,
Am
Well I aint that bad, well I aint that good,
F
I just did what I did to get by.
F
I did what I did to get by.
F
I did what I did to get by.
F
I did what I did to get by.
C
though it was in infamy,
G
I had my fortune and fame,
Am
After I robbed the passenger train,
F
Nothin' was ever the same,
Am
My pockets were lined with the silver and gold,
G
But the weight got heavy and I started to fold,
Am
I went to the steps of the ol' town hall,
F
I said here's all my money, you can have it all,
[Chorus]
C
Times were hard, they brought me down,
G
At least I can say that I tried,
Am
Well I aint that bad, well I aint that good,
F
I just did what I did to get by.
Am
I did what I did to get by.
G
I did what I did to get by.
AM
I did what I did, I did what I did, I did what I did to get by.
F
I did what I did to get by. (You know I tried)
F
I did what I did to get by. (Yeah I did)
F
I did what I did to get by.
F
I did what I did to get by.
