Version 1
            G                   C       G
A little child on a sickbed lay
    C              G
And death was very near
                      C    G          A7              D
She was the pride and only child of a railroad engin- eer
                             G
His duty had called him from those he loved
    D                    G
And seeing that hope was dim
                G7           C
While a tear he shed, to his wife he said
              D        G
Just have two lanterns trimmed

[Chorus]
C                      G
Just hang a light as I pass tonight
C                G      D
Hang it where it can be seen
       G                C
If our baby's dead just show the red
         G           D        G
If she's better then show the green

G                        C        G
In a little house by the railroad track
  C                    G
A mother with watchful eye
      G                   C      G
Saw a gleam of hope and a feeble smile
       A7                 D
As the train went rushing by
                            G
Just one short look was his only chance
   D             G
To see the light agleam
                G7           C
In the midnight air there a- rose a prayer
      G       D         G
Thank God the light was green

[Chorus]
C                      G
Just hang a light as I pass tonight
C                G      D
Hang it where it can be seen
       G                C
If our baby's dead just show the red
         G           D        G
If she's better then show the green
