Verse 1
G
D
In my early days of singing, I did folk songs and tragic songs,
G
and this was one of my favorites
D
G
when I used to do concerts all alone in college,
E
first one place to another, when I was called
on to take the guitar and
G
play and sing.
That's the best way to do folk songs,
just with a guitar.
D
G
Then you can use any meter you want to, out of time,
out of meter, stop and talk a minute
it and start again.
D
That's the way I used to like to do tunes.
G
This is a song coming
D
G
from the hills of
D
Kentucky in the coal mining country.
G
D
They used to bring it out in these
G
dinky little trains, you know.
And they were always
D
G
jumping the track.
D
And this is the
G
story of one of them.
It's the wreck of number nine.
One dark stormy night,
C
not a star was in sight
G
The north wind came
D
howling down the line
G
There stood a brave engineer,
C
with his sweet heart so dear
G
D
G
And his orders to flow number nine
D
She kissed him goodbye
G
with a tear in her eye
C
G
D
The joy in his heart he couldn't hide
G
The whole world seemed bright
C
for she told him that night
G
That tomorrow she'd
D
G
be his blushing bride
The wheels hummed a song
C
as the train rolled along
G
The black smoke came
D
pouring from the stack
G
The headlight, a gleam,
C
seemed to brighten his dream
G
D
G
Of tomorrow, when he'd be going back
D
He sped round the hill and
G
his brave heart stood still
C
G
D
The headlight was shining in his face
G
He whispered a prayer as
C
he threw on the air
G
D
For he knew this would be
G
C
G
his final race
D
G
In the wreck he was found
C
lying there on the ground
G
D
He asked them to raise his weary head
G
His breath slowly went as
C
this message he
G
D
Sent to a maiden who thought
G
she would be wed
D
There's a little white home
G
that I built for our own
C
G
Where I dreamed we'd be happy,
D
you and I
G
But I leave it to you,
C
for I know you'll be true
G
D
Till we meet at the golden gates, goodbye
G
