Verse 1
Bm
Em
Bm
After drinking all night,
I could drink no more,
and I made my bed on the barroom floor.
I fell asleep with a troubled brain,
Em
and dreamed I rode on the hell
F#
Bm
-bound train.
The boiler was filled with liquor and beer
Em
The devil himself was the engineer
Bm
The passengers were a
mixed -up crew
F#
Bm
Churchmen, Atheists, Baptists, and Jews
The rich in broadcloth wore in rags
Em
Beautiful girls in wrinkled hags
Bm
Black men, yellow men, red and white
F#
We were chained together
Bm
and filled with fright
Em
An imp was shoveling human bones
Bm
And the furnace roared with
a thousand groans
Em
The train rushed on at a terrible pace
Bm
And I shivered at the smile
F#
Bm
on the devil's face
Loud and terrible thunder crashed
Em
Whiter and brighter lightning flashed
Bm
Hot ter still the air became
F#
Bm
As on we rode on the hell -bound train
Wilder and darker the country grew
Em
Faster and faster the engine flew
Bm
Then came a fearful shrieking yell
F#
Get ready, my friends,
Bm
the next stop is hell
Em
Then I screamed, O devil, stop this train
Bm
And free me from these evil chains
Em
It's too late now, the devil grinned
Bm
F#
Bm
Your soul is mine for all your sins
You've bullied the weak,
you've scorned the poor
Em
You've cheated, you've lied,
you've sinned and swore
Bm
Your soul is mine forevermore
F#
Bm
To hell you'll go, the devil roared
Em
Then I awoke with a sober cry
Bm
G
Bm
And screamed, O Lord, don't let me die
Em
My body was chill and
drenched with sweat
Bm
From a terrible riot I'll never forget
Em
So now I pray each waking hour
Bm
to be saved from hell and the devil's power
Em
So when the maker calls my name,
Bm
I'll pay no fare on that
hell -bound train
Bm
Em
Em
Bm
