                      DOWN THERE BY THE TRAIN

            E      E7               A         E
There's a place I know, Where the train goes slow
            E              E              A           B7
Where the sinners can be washed, In the blood of the lamb
            A             E      A                A
There's a river by the trestle, Over by Sinners Grove
 E               E7             B7     A      E
Down where the willow and the dogwood grow

 E                        B7
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
 E                       A
Down ther by the train, Down there by the train
 E                               B7     E
Down there, Where the train     goes   slow

         A          E      A                E
You can hear the whistle, You can hear the bell
          E         E7             A       B7
From the halls of heaven, To the gates of hell
             A                E                        A
And there's room for the forsaken, If you're there on time
            E                 E7       A
You'll be washed of all your sins and all of your crimes

           E                          B7
If you're down there by the train,   Down there by the train
 E                          A
Down there by the train,   Down there by the train
 E                              B7    E
Down there, Where the train,   goes  slow

  E               E7         A                     E
There's a golden moon that shines up throught the mist
       E              E             A        B7
And I know that your name,  Will be on that list
            A          E                A          A
There's no eye for an eye, There's no tooth for a tooth
        E                      B7           A
I saw Judas Iscariot carrying John Wilkes Booth

        E                        B7
He was down there by the train, Down there by the train
 E                        A
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
        E                        B7    E
He was down where the train     goes  slow
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/tom-waits/219442.html ]
   E                 E7         A                E
So if you live in darkness, And If you live in shame
 E            E7                 A          B7
All of the passengers, Will be treated the same
         A            E          A                  A
Oh, And old Humpty Jackson, And Gyp the Blood will sing
       E                              B7         A
And Charlie Witten is holding on to Dillenger's wings

              E                        B7
They're both down there by the train, Down there by the train
 E                        A
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
 E                             B7     E
Down there where the train    goes   slow

           E             E7              A              E
If you've lost all your hope, If you've lost all your faith
   E               E7               A               B7
I know you can be cared for, And I know you can be safe
     A           E              A           A
And all of the shamefulls, And all of the whores
     E                                B7          A
And even the soldier who pierced the side of the Lord

    E                        B7
Is down there by the train, Down there by the train
 E                        A
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
 E                               B7    E
Down there where the train      goes  slow

                  E                          A            E
Well I've never asked for forgivness, I've never said a prayer
        E        E7               A           B7
Never given of myself, And I've never truly cared
          A                  E            A                 A
And I've hurt the ones who loved me, And I'm still raising Cain
       E                         B7                A
I've taken the low road, And if you have done the same

         E                        B7
Meet me down there by the train, Down there by the train
 E                        A
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
 E                              B7     A
Down there where the train     goes   slow 

         E                        B7
Meet me down there by the train, Down there by the train
 E                        A
Down there by the train, Down there by the train
 E                              B7     A
Down there where the train     goes   slow
