Verse 1:
C (strum once and hold) C
The Brakeman is letting off some steam,
This has to be the slowest train that I have ever seen
and the Sandman's waiting to deliver me my Fdream,
Guess I'll lay my Am7head against my elbow and the Gwindow
Watch the Fwheels go, Watch the Gwheels go, C
Chorus:
Roll Fon, Roll Gon oh little Ctrain
FBrakeman blow your Gwhistle, throw your Cweight upon the chain
Make Emway, for whatever will be, will Fbe
Between the GSandman, the Brakeman, and Cme.
Verse 2:
And the Sandman's waiting to deliver me my dream, deliver me my dream, deliver me my dream,
ToFday
Guess I'll lay my Am7head against my elbow and the Gwindow
Let my Fwheels go, let my Gwheels go C
