Chords

[Intro] D C A [Verse]
A
My engine pumpin' steam

D
And I was grindin' at you hard and fast

A
I was burnin' down the rails to heat the way

D
Haulin' ass and ridin' up the track

A
And I laughed at the conductor who was tellin' me 

D
My coal would never last

         E
When the fire in my boiler up and quit before I came

D
There ain't no empty cellar

       C               A
Need a gone dead train
[Verse]
A
Once was at a time when I could mama shave 'em dry

    D
And raise a fever ice-down chill

A
Waitin' at the station with a heavy loaded sack

D
Savin' up and holdin' just to spill

A
Shootin' my supply through my demon's eye

D
Instead of holdin' my time, I hope I will

         E
When the fire in my boiler up and quit before I came

D
There ain't no empty cellar

       C               A
Need a gone dead train
[Chorus]
            D    C    A
Yes, it's a gone dead train, got to help it to burn

                D    C     A
You know it's a gone dead train, you got to teach it to learn
[Solo] [Verse]
       A
There ain't no easy way

           D
When your daily run a downhill pull

          A
And there ain't no easy day

D
Wishin' for some jelly roll

       A
There ain't no switch been made to make your juicy lemon find

   D
A spring to run a dry well full

         E
When the fire in my boiler up and quit before I came

D
There ain't no empty cellar

       C               A
Need a gone dead train
[Chorus]
             D    C     A
Yes, it's a gone dead train, got to help it to burn

                D    C     A
You know it's a gone dead train, you got to teach it to learn

                 D    C     A
You know it's a gone dead train got to help it to burn

                 D    C     A
You know it's a gone dead train you got to help it to learn

              D    C     A
Baby, it's a gone dead train yes, it's a gone dead train
