Intro
F7 A#
[Verse 1]
A# A#7 D# Cm
She just left the point at Chiekany
F F7 A#
The freight number twelve-sixty-two
F7 A# A#7 D# Cm
And on down the mountain she travelled
F F7 A#
So brave were the men in her crew
[Verse 2]
A# A#7 D# Cm
Then the engineer pulled at the whistle
F F7 A#
For the brakes wouldn't work when app-lied
A# A#7 D# Cm
And the brakeman climbed out on the car top
F F7 A#
For he knew what that whistle had cried
[Instrumental]
A# A#7 D# Cm
F F7 A#
A# A#7 D# Cm
F F7 A#
[Verse 3]
A# A#7 D# Cm
With all of the strength that God gave him
F F7 A#
He tied in those brakes with a prayer
F7 A# A#7 D# Cm
But the train went right on down that mountain
F F7 A#
Her whistle still piercing the air
[Verse 4]
A# A#7 D# Cm
She travelled at sixty an hour
F F7 A#
Gaining speed every foot of the way
A# A#7 D# Cm
And then with a crash it was over
F F7 A#
And there on the track the freight lay
[Instrumental]
A# A#7 D# Cm
F F7 A#
A# A#7 D# Cm
F F7 A#
[Verse 5]
A# A#7 D# Cm
It's not the amount of the damage
F F7 A#
Or the value of what the wreck cost
A# A#7 D# Cm
It's the sad scene they found in the cabin
F F7 A#
Where the lives of two brave men were lost
[Verse 6]
A# A#7 D# Cm
They found them at their post in the wreckage
F F7 A#
Where they died when the engine had fell
F7 A# A#7 D# Cm
The engineer still held the whistle
F F7 A#
And the fireman still clung to the bell
[Verse 7]
A# A#7 D# Cm
Now this story is told of a freight train,
F F7 A#
But it should be a warning to all;
F7 A# A#7 D# Cm
We need to be prepared ev'ry moment,
F F7 A#
For we can never tell when He'll call.
