Down There By The Train

Tom: E

E           E7         A          E    
 There's a place I know where the train goes slow 
                                       A            B7   
 Where the sinner can be washed in the blood of the lamb 
           E            E7              A              
 There's a river by the trestle down by Sinner's Grove 
                E              B7      A     E 
 Down where the willow and the dogwood grow   
 
         A             E   A                E    
 You can hear the whistle, you can hear the bell 
                   E7                     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

 There's a golden moon that shines up through the mist    
                        E7 A                 B 
 And I know that your name can be on that list 
            E             E7           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
