[Verse 1]
C       G7     C     C7     F       Fm    C
All around the water tanks, waiting for a train.
  F               C              D7              G7
A thousand miles away from home, sleeping in the rain.
  C         G7   C      C7    F          Fm      C
I walked up to a brakeman, to give him a line of talk.
   F                  C           D7                 G7
He says if you've got money, I'll see that you don't walk.
C         G7    C     C7      F     Fm     C
I haven't got a nickel, not a penny can I show.
    F                 C        A7         D7          G7     C
Get off, get off, you railroad bum and he slammed the boxcar door.

[Verse 2]
   C      G7     C   C7   F       Fm      C
He put me off in Texas, a state I dearly love.
    F                     C             D7                G7
The wide open spaces all around me, the moon and stars up above.
C      G7       C     C7    F         Fm      C
Nobody seems to want me, or lend me a helping hand.
F                  C             D7            G7
I'm on my way from Frisco, going back to Dixie Land.
          C      G7     C   C7    F        Fm       C
Though my pocketbook is empty, my heart is full of pain.
      F               C        A7    D7      G7      C
I'm a thousand miles away from home, waiting for a train.
