Hank Williams – Devils Train (Guitar)

C 
The devil's train is long and black 

                     Am 
It rides on rails of tears 

     C 
It's headin' for destruction now 

       G7        C 
With a drunken engineer

C 
Oh see the greatness of the crowd 

                      Am 
That waits beside the track 

        C 
They're leaving on that devil's train 

          G7     C 
And never coming back 

C
Oh Lord please stop that devil's train 

                 G7 
Before it is too late 

    C 
And teach them how to bow their heads 

            G7         C 
Before they seal their fate

C
The devil's train will take you to 

                     Am 
A land of groans and pain 

       C 
You'll spend your days in sorrow if 

                G7      C 
You ride that devil's train 

C
Oh listen to that whistle scream 

                     Am 
Like echoes from the blue 

    C 
The throttle's wide and spoutin' steam 

             G7     C 
She's on her way to doom 

C
Oh Lord please stop that devil's train 

                 G7 
Before it is too late 

    C 
And teach them how to bow their heads 

            G7         C 
Before they seal their fate

C
The devil's train is long and black 

                  Am 
It's beautiful to see 

   C 
It offers you temptation but 

               G7  C 
It brings you mis-ery 

                   Am 
Where happiness is free 

     C 
It's on its way to heaven now 

          G7   C 
To spend eter-nity 

C
Oh Lord please stop that devil's train 

                 G7 
Before it is too late 

    C 
And teach them how to bow their heads 

            G7         C 
Before they seal their fate
