C       G7     C     C7   F       Fm    C 
All around the water tank waiting for a train 
  F              C         Am   D7              G7 
A thousand miles away from home sleeping in the rain 
  C         G7   C        C7      F          Fm      C 
I walked up to a brakeman just to give him a line of talk 
   F                  C          D7                 G7 
He said if you've got money I'll see that you don't walk 
C              G7    C      C7    F           E7 
Well I haven't got a nickel not a penny can I show 
   F                C                   D7          G7     C 
He said get off you railroad bum and he slammed the boxcar door 

G7      C      G7     C    C7  F      Fm     C 
Well he put me off in Texas a place I dearly love 
    F                    C             D7             G7 
The wide open spaces all around me the moon and stars above 
C      G7       C       C7     F         Fm      C 
Nobody seems to want me nor to lend me a helping hand 
    F              C             D7             G7 
I'm on my way from Frisco heading back to Dixie Land 
C        G7      C     C7  F                   E7 
My pocketbook is empty my heart is willed with pain 
      F              C              D7           G7    C 
I'm a thousand miles away from home just waiting for a train
