Intro
G#7 C#
[Verse 1]
C# C#7 F# D#m
She just left the point at Chiekany
G# G#7 C#
The freight number twelve-sixty-two
G#7 C# C#7 F# D#m
And on down the mountain she travelled
G# G#7 C#
So brave were the men in her crew
[Verse 2]
C# C#7 F# D#m
Then the engineer pulled at the whistle
G# G#7 C#
For the brakes wouldn't work when app-lied
C# C#7 F# D#m
And the brakeman climbed out on the car top
G# G#7 C#
For he knew what that whistle had cried
[Instrumental]
C# C#7 F# D#m
G# G#7 C#
C# C#7 F# D#m
G# G#7 C#
[Verse 3]
C# C#7 F# D#m
With all of the strength that God gave him
G# G#7 C#
He tied in those brakes with a prayer
G#7 C# C#7 F# D#m
But the train went right on down that mountain
G# G#7 C#
Her whistle still piercing the air
[Verse 4]
C# C#7 F# D#m
She travelled at sixty an hour
G# G#7 C#
Gaining speed every foot of the way
C# C#7 F# D#m
And then with a crash it was over
G# G#7 C#
And there on the track the freight lay
[Instrumental]
C# C#7 F# D#m
G# G#7 C#
C# C#7 F# D#m
G# G#7 C#
[Verse 5]
C# C#7 F# D#m
It's not the amount of the damage
G# G#7 C#
Or the value of what the wreck cost
C# C#7 F# D#m
It's the sad scene they found in the cabin
G# G#7 C#
Where the lives of two brave men were lost
[Verse 6]
C# C#7 F# D#m
They found them at their post in the wreckage
G# G#7 C#
Where they died when the engine had fell
G#7 C# C#7 F# D#m
The engineer still held the whistle
G# G#7 C#
And the fireman still clung to the bell
[Verse 7]
C# C#7 F# D#m
Now this story is told of a freight train,
G# G#7 C#
But it should be a warning to all;
G#7 C# C#7 F# D#m
We need to be prepared ev'ry moment,
G# G#7 C#
For we can never tell when He'll call.
