John Hiatt – Train To Birmingham (Guitar)

G                        D
I've been riding on this train

         Am             C
Drinking whiskey for the pain just

G                D           C
Another good ol' boy going home

G                D
And every town I see

         Am            C
Seems to take a part of me

G                         D            C
That's the price that you pay when you roam

       Am        Em
And I lie when I have to

      F   C      D
And I cry when I can

      G  B7      Em  C
But I die a little slower

       G     D         G
On the train to Birmingham

G                       D
I got holes in both my shoes

      Am                 C
Got a guitar full of blues

G                    D       C
And a one way ticket for my remedy

G                          D
It's the same ol' lonesome song

          Am                C
I've been singing all night long

G                   D          C
Hey, porter, are we out of Tennessee

       Am        Em
And I cry when I have to

      F   C      D
And I lie when I can

      G  B7       Em  C
But I die a little slower

       G     D         G
On the train to Birmingham

G                           D
Well every year I ride this train

   Am            C
To Alabama in the rain

G                        D             C
When I get that lonesome feelin' in my bones

G                     D
I never get to Birmingham

            Am              C
But gettin' there ain't the plan

       G             D        C
I just like the feel of going home

       Am        Em
And I lie when I have to

      F   C      D
And I cry when I can

      G  B7       Em  C
But I die a little slower

       G     D         G
On the train to Birmingham

       B7          Em  C
But I die a little slower

       G     D      C
On the train to Birmingham
