(Intro): E7 F Dm7 F

Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast,
G C Am G
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast.
E7 F Dm7 F
Please don't tell what train I'm on,
Am G Em Dm C
So they won't know where I've gone.
C C Am G7
Freight train, freight train comin' round the bend,
G C Am G
Freight train, freight train, gone a...gain.
E7 F Dm7 F
One of these days turn that train a...round,
Am G G7 C
And go back to my home town.

Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast,

C Dm Am G7 G C Am G
One more place I'd like to be, one more place I'd love to see,
E7 F Dm7 F
To watch them old Blue Ridge Mountains climb,
Am G G7 C
When I ride ol’ Number Nine.
C Dm Am G7
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast,
G C Am G
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast.
E7 F Dm7 F
Please don't tell what train I'm on,
Am G Em Dm C
So they won't know where I've gone.
C C Am G7 G C Am G
When I die Lord, bury me deep, down at the end of Bleeker Street,
E7 F Dm7 F Am G Dm C
So I can hear old Number Nine, as she goes rollin’ by.
C Dm Am G7
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast,
G C Am G
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast.
E7 F Dm7 F
Please don't tell what train I'm on,
