[Verse 1]
G C D G Orange Blossom Special, the Wabash Cannonball. G C A D The Chattanooga Choo-Choo, this hobo's seen ‘em all. G C G C I've watched the Santa Fe lay her smoke against the sky. G C D G And listened to old Number Three rolling through the night.
[Chorus]
G C G Ride the traaain, ride the train. G Am C Anywhere I'm going I ride trains. C Am G Sleepin’ in a boxcar when it rains. G C D G Ride the traaain, ride the train.

[Verse 2]
G C D G The Southern Pacific, the Overland Express. G C A D Up ahead the coal cars, with West Virginia's best. G C G C And Oklahoma's Frisco, the biggest one of all. G C D G I've listened to the silver steed's lonesome midnight call.
[Chorus]
G C G Ride the traaain, ride the train. G Am C Anywhere I'm going I ride trains. C Am G Sleepin’ in a boxcar when it rains. G C D G Ride the traaain, ride the train.
