Railroad Man
Words and Music by Jim Patton and Barry McGuire
on Seeds by Barry McGuire
Copyright 1973
G C D
I was running down the track, tract in my hand
G A7 D7
Want to give my tract to a railroad man
G C D
Railroad man running as fast as he can
G C D G
For he don't want to see the tract I'm holding in my hand
D C Am
You know I sat down on the corner and I started to cry
D C G
Railroad man is a fixing to die
D C Am
I couldn't help myself, I just broke down and cried
D C Em
Day I heard my railroad man died
D G
Yes he died, railroad man
C D
Only one time running, his train done broke
G A7 D7
Blew up all his money on a mystical smoke
G C D
On a one way trip shooting down the line
G C D G
Trying so hard to find just a little peace of mind
D C Am
You know I sat down on the corner and I started to cry
D C G
Railroad man is a fixing to die
D C Am
I couldn't help myself, I just broke down and cried
D C Em
Day I heard my railroad man died
D G
Yes he died, railroad man
C D
Well you say you are a linesman, say you're all alone
G A7 D7
Say you got no reason for ever going home
G C D
Well if you hadn't lost your mind, gone deaf, dumb, and blind
G C D G
You'd know that Jesus has been calling for a long, long time
D C Am
I don't want no more corners and I don't want to cry
D C G
I don't want to hear about the day you died
D C Em
Don't you know that you're my brother so take me by the hand
D C G
Walk along right by my side until you understand
D C Em
Don't you know that you're my brother so take me by the hand
D C Em
Walk along right by my side until you understand
D Em C G
Oh take my hand, oh, oh railroad man
