[Verse]
G Cadd9
I have travelled
G D*
this world by and by
G Cadd9
the hills of Missouri
G D* G
that California sky
G Cadd9
but I miss my family
G D*
and I miss my Annie
G Cadd9
I hope that freight train
G D* G
it'll take me to old field Kentucky
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 G
So take me back to where I'm from
Cadd9 D*
I can't seem to find my woman
Cadd9 G D* Em7
oh, take me back to where I need to be
Cadd9 D* G
oh, freight train take me to Kentucky
[Verse]
G Cadd9
One, bright morning
G D*
when the sky was all clear
G Cadd9
I hopped that freight train
G D* G
and ride until I hear
G Cadd9
the cry of my mama
G D*
from the holler she would call me
G Cadd9
I come a-running
G D* G
and she'd be sitting on the porch
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 G
So take me back to where I'm from
Cadd9 D*
I can't seem to find my woman
Cadd9 G D* Em7
oh, take me back to where I need to be
Cadd9 D* G
oh, freight train take me to Kentucky
[Interlude]
G Cadd9 G D* G D* Cadd9 G D* G
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 G
So take me back to where I'm from
Cadd9 D*
I can't seem to find my woman
Cadd9 G D* Em7
oh, take me back to where I need to be
Cadd9 D* G
oh, freight train take me to Kentucky
Cadd9 D* G
oh, freight train take me to Kentucky
Cadd9 D* G
oh, freight train take me to Kentucky
