Intro
E7 A
[Verse 1]
A A7 D Bm
She just left the point at Chiekany
E E7 A
The freight number twelve-sixty-two
E7 A A7 D Bm
And on down the mountain she travelled
E E7 A
So brave were the men in her crew
[Verse 2]
A A7 D Bm
Then the engineer pulled at the whistle
E E7 A
For the brakes wouldn't work when app-lied
A A7 D Bm
And the brakeman climbed out on the car top
E E7 A
For he knew what that whistle had cried
[Instrumental]
A A7 D Bm
E E7 A
A A7 D Bm
E E7 A
[Verse 3]
A A7 D Bm
With all of the strength that God gave him
E E7 A
He tied in those brakes with a prayer
E7 A A7 D Bm
But the train went right on down that mountain
E E7 A
Her whistle still piercing the air
[Verse 4]
A A7 D Bm
She travelled at sixty an hour
E E7 A
Gaining speed every foot of the way
A A7 D Bm
And then with a crash it was over
E E7 A
And there on the track the freight lay
[Instrumental]
A A7 D Bm
E E7 A
A A7 D Bm
E E7 A
[Verse 5]
A A7 D Bm
It's not the amount of the damage
E E7 A
Or the value of what the wreck cost
A A7 D Bm
It's the sad scene they found in the cabin
E E7 A
Where the lives of two brave men were lost
[Verse 6]
A A7 D Bm
They found them at their post in the wreckage
E E7 A
Where they died when the engine had fell
E7 A A7 D Bm
The engineer still held the whistle
E E7 A
And the fireman still clung to the bell
[Verse 7]
A A7 D Bm
Now this story is told of a freight train,
E E7 A
But it should be a warning to all;
E7 A A7 D Bm
We need to be prepared ev'ry moment,
E E7 A
For we can never tell when He'll call.
