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