Intro
C7 F
[Verse 1]
F F7 A# Gm
She just left the point at Chiekany
C C7 F
The freight number twelve-sixty-two
C7 F F7 A# Gm
And on down the mountain she travelled
C C7 F
So brave were the men in her crew
[Verse 2]
F F7 A# Gm
Then the engineer pulled at the whistle
C C7 F
For the brakes wouldn't work when app-lied
F F7 A# Gm
And the brakeman climbed out on the car top
C C7 F
For he knew what that whistle had cried
[Instrumental]
F F7 A# Gm
C C7 F
F F7 A# Gm
C C7 F
[Verse 3]
F F7 A# Gm
With all of the strength that God gave him
C C7 F
He tied in those brakes with a prayer
C7 F F7 A# Gm
But the train went right on down that mountain
C C7 F
Her whistle still piercing the air
[Verse 4]
F F7 A# Gm
She travelled at sixty an hour
C C7 F
Gaining speed every foot of the way
F F7 A# Gm
And then with a crash it was over
C C7 F
And there on the track the freight lay
[Instrumental]
F F7 A# Gm
C C7 F
F F7 A# Gm
C C7 F
[Verse 5]
F F7 A# Gm
It's not the amount of the damage
C C7 F
Or the value of what the wreck cost
F F7 A# Gm
It's the sad scene they found in the cabin
C C7 F
Where the lives of two brave men were lost
[Verse 6]
F F7 A# Gm
They found them at their post in the wreckage
C C7 F
Where they died when the engine had fell
C7 F F7 A# Gm
The engineer still held the whistle
C C7 F
And the fireman still clung to the bell
[Verse 7]
F F7 A# Gm
Now this story is told of a freight train,
C C7 F
But it should be a warning to all;
C7 F F7 A# Gm
We need to be prepared ev'ry moment,
C C7 F
For we can never tell when He'll call.
