Chorus:
Bb F Bb F C     Train, train, train come again.
Bb F Bb F C     Bring more songs from your land.
Bb F Bb F C     Train, train, train come again.

C    Gm Music fuels the locomotive, pulls the boxcars' song cargo.
F   Bb C The singing engine fills the air and takes us there.
C    Gm Along the way we have a view from a perspective new.
F   Bb C Different rhythms, different words but familiar.
C F {Bb F} x3   C That's to say those songs they bring make me wanna sing another tune.
C F {Bb F} x3 C 'Cause on the train I'm bound to be thinkin' songs always, too.

{chorus}

C    Gm Many riders through the years have spent their lives in high gear
F   Bb C on the song train bound for nowhere.
C    Gm That's the life the bard knows well. Lovin ' all and no one will
F   Bb C make him love no one still forever.
C F {Bb F} x3   C That's to say no song is made for no one forever always.
C F {Bb F} x3   C Someone will always be on board the song train in praise.

C    Gm Last Sunday night the train rolled in bringing a bard from a land of
F   Bb C Goodwill gear. He sang. We cheered and understood.
C    Gm Strum by strumg, song by song, another world beyond this one was
F   Bb C left behind. Its melody and lyrics to sing.
C F {Bb F} x3   C That's to say the song train came to let us make our escape.
C F {Bb F} x3   C Take us from our Sunday night into a musical landscape.
