Chords

[Intro] | D | D | D | D | [Verse 1]
D          A
When I was young,

  D        G      D
I spent my summer days.

               A
Playing on the track.

    D            A
The sound of the wheels,

D              G
rolling on the steel.

        D
Took me out, took me back.
[Chorus]
    G          D
Big train from Memphis,

    G          D
big train from Memphis,

         A           D
now it's gone, gone, gone,

A           D
gone, gone, gone.
[Verse 2]
              A
Like no one before,

   D         G
he let out a roar.

    D                   A
And I, just had to tag along.

     D               A
Each night I went to bed,

         D            G
with the sounds in my head.

        D
And the dream, was a song.
[Chorus]
    G          D
Big train from Memphis,

    G          D
big train from Memphis,

         A           D
now it's gone, gone, gone,

A           D
gone, gone, gone.
[Break] | D A | D G | D | A | | D A | D G | D | D | | G | D | A | D | D | [Verse 3]
                A
Well I rode 'em in.

    D         G
And back out again.

    D                         A
You know, what they say about trains.

    D          A
But I'm tellin you,

          D                  G
when that Memphis train came through.

         D
This old world was not the same.
[End-Chorus]
    G          D
Big train from Memphis,

    G          D
big train from Memphis,

         A           D
now it's gone, gone, gone,

A           D
gone, gone, gone.
