Tom Russell - Amelia’s Railroad Flat
CAPO: 4th Fret
[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
F
Amelia, she worked for the railroad
G C
Doing what, I never knew
Dm
But I’d meet her down at the depot
G C
Every day at half-past two
[Verse 2]
F
And we climbed the old wood stairway
G C
Find the key below the mat
Dm
Watch the sunset on the freight yard
G C
Up at Amelia’s railroad flat
[Verse 3]
F
Russian vodka in the freezer
G C
From the Polish liquor store
Dm
Spanish rice, Moroccan oranges
G C
Persian rugs upon the floor
[Verse 4]
F
And Amelia came from Denmark
G C
She bought a pair of Siamese cats
Dm
They’d wake us up there in the morning
G C
At Amelia’s railroad flat
[Bridge]
Am F
And every night the midnight ghost rode out on time
Am F
Rolling down the line at twelve-o-nine
Am F
And we’d sit and count the cars out on the track
C G
As they shook the bedroom window of Amelia’s railroad flat
[Instrumental]
G F G C Dm G C
[Verse 5]
F
But the freight yards, they are gone now
G C
And the buildings block the sun
Dm
And Amelia sailed for Demark
G C
Way back in Nineteen Eighty-One
[Verse 6]
F
But every time I hear a freight train
G C
Or watch the sunset on the tracks
Dm
Lord, I recall those summer evenings
G C
Up at Amelia’s railroad flat
[Verse 7]
F
And every time I hear a freight train
G C
Blowing lonely down the track
Dm
I hear those bedroom windows rattle
G C
Up at Amelia’s railroad flat
Dm
Lord, how those bedroom windows rattled
G C
Up at Amelia’s railroad flat
