Intro
D7 G
[Verse 1]
G G7 C Am
She just left the point at Chiekany
D D7 G
The freight number twelve-sixty-two
D7 G G7 C Am
And on down the mountain she travelled
D D7 G
So brave were the men in her crew
[Verse 2]
G G7 C Am
Then the engineer pulled at the whistle
D D7 G
For the brakes wouldn't work when app-lied
G G7 C Am
And the brakeman climbed out on the car top
D D7 G
For he knew what that whistle had cried
[Instrumental]
G G7 C Am
D D7 G
G G7 C Am
D D7 G
[Verse 3]
G G7 C Am
With all of the strength that God gave him
D D7 G
He tied in those brakes with a prayer
D7 G G7 C Am
But the train went right on down that mountain
D D7 G
Her whistle still piercing the air
[Verse 4]
G G7 C Am
She travelled at sixty an hour
D D7 G
Gaining speed every foot of the way
G G7 C Am
And then with a crash it was over
D D7 G
And there on the track the freight lay
[Instrumental]
G G7 C Am
D D7 G
G G7 C Am
D D7 G
[Verse 5]
G G7 C Am
It's not the amount of the damage
D D7 G
Or the value of what the wreck cost
G G7 C Am
It's the sad scene they found in the cabin
D D7 G
Where the lives of two brave men were lost
[Verse 6]
G G7 C Am
They found them at their post in the wreckage
D D7 G
Where they died when the engine had fell
D7 G G7 C Am
The engineer still held the whistle
D D7 G
And the fireman still clung to the bell
[Verse 7]
G G7 C Am
Now this story is told of a freight train,
D D7 G
But it should be a warning to all;
D7 G G7 C Am
We need to be prepared ev'ry moment,
D D7 G
For we can never tell when He'll call.
