[Chorus]
G D E
It's a gone dead train
G D E
Yes, it's a gone dead train
[Verse 1]
E
My engine was pumpin' steam
A
And I was grindin' at you hard and fast
E
Burnin' down the rails, tryin' to heat the way
A
Haulin' ass and ridin' up the track
E
And I laughed at the conductor who was tellin' me my coal
A
It would never last
[Bridge]
B
But then the fire in my boiler
Up and quit before I came
A
Ain't no empty cellar
G E
Like a gone dead train
[Verse 2]
E
Once was at a time when I could
Mama shave 'em dry
A
And raise a fever ice-down chill
E
Waitin' at the station
With a heavy loaded sack
A
Savin' up and holdin' just to spill
E
Shootin' my supply through my demon's eye
A
Instead of holdin' my time, I hope I will
[Bridge]
B
But then the fire in my boiler
Up and quit before I came
A D
There ain't no empty cellar
G E
Needs a gone dead train
[Chorus]
G D E
Yes it's a gone dead train
I'm gonna teach it to learn now, now
G D E
It's a gone dead train
[Chorus]
G D E
Yes it's a gone dead train
I'm gonna teach it to learn now, now
G D E
It's a gone dead train
Gonna teach it, gonna teach it to learn
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
E
There ain't no easy day
A
When your daily run's a downhill pull
E
And there ain't no easy way
A
Wishin' for some jelly roll
E
There ain't no switch been made
To make your juicy lemon find
A
A spring to run a dry well full
[Bridge]
B
But then the fire in my boiler
Up and quit before I came
A D
Ain't no empty cellar
G E
Needs a gone dead train
[Chorus]
G D E
Yes it's a gone dead train
I'm gonna teach it to learn
G D E
You know it's a gone dead train
Gonna teach it, gonna teach it to burn
[Outro]
G D E
It's a gone dead train
G D E
It's a gone dead train, you gotta learn
G D E
It's a gone dead train
Gonna teach it, gonna teach it, gonna teach it to burn.
