Intro
B7 E
[Verse 1]
E E7 A F#m
She just left the point at Chiekany
B B7 E
The freight number twelve-sixty-two
B7 E E7 A F#m
And on down the mountain she travelled
B B7 E
So brave were the men in her crew
[Verse 2]
E E7 A F#m
Then the engineer pulled at the whistle
B B7 E
For the brakes wouldn't work when app-lied
E E7 A F#m
And the brakeman climbed out on the car top
B B7 E
For he knew what that whistle had cried
[Instrumental]
E E7 A F#m
B B7 E
E E7 A F#m
B B7 E
[Verse 3]
E E7 A F#m
With all of the strength that God gave him
B B7 E
He tied in those brakes with a prayer
B7 E E7 A F#m
But the train went right on down that mountain
B B7 E
Her whistle still piercing the air
[Verse 4]
E E7 A F#m
She travelled at sixty an hour
B B7 E
Gaining speed every foot of the way
E E7 A F#m
And then with a crash it was over
B B7 E
And there on the track the freight lay
[Instrumental]
E E7 A F#m
B B7 E
E E7 A F#m
B B7 E
[Verse 5]
E E7 A F#m
It's not the amount of the damage
B B7 E
Or the value of what the wreck cost
E E7 A F#m
It's the sad scene they found in the cabin
B B7 E
Where the lives of two brave men were lost
[Verse 6]
E E7 A F#m
They found them at their post in the wreckage
B B7 E
Where they died when the engine had fell
B7 E E7 A F#m
The engineer still held the whistle
B B7 E
And the fireman still clung to the bell
[Verse 7]
E E7 A F#m
Now this story is told of a freight train,
B B7 E
But it should be a warning to all;
B7 E E7 A F#m
We need to be prepared ev'ry moment,
B B7 E
For we can never tell when He'll call.
