[Verse 1]
E7ADA
All around the water tank, waiting for a train
DAF#7B7E7
A thousand miles away from home, sleepin' in the rain
[Verse 2]
AE7A7DA
I walked up to a brakeman, gave him a line of talk
DAF#7B7E
He said if you've got money boy, I'll see that you don't walk
[Verse 3]
AE7A7DA
I haven't got a nickel, not a penny can I show
DAF#7B7E7A
Get off, get off, you railroad bum and he slammed the boxcar door
[ Break]

[Verse 4]
AE7ADA
He put me off in Texas, a state I dearly love
DAB7E
The wide open spaces all around me, the moon and stars up above
[Verse 5]
AE7ADA
Nobody seems to want me, or lend me a helping hand
DAB7E7
I'm on my way from Frisco, going back to Dixie Land
[Verse 6]
AEADA
Though my pocketbook is empty and my heart is full of pain
DAF#7B7E7A
I'm a thousand miles away from home, just waiting for a train
