INTRO (4x): C  Bb  F 
 
               C      Bb                     F 
I've tried the bottle, but it only brings me further down 
              C              Bb            F 
And since you left, oh there ain't a soul around 
            C                  Bb          F 
I've got to get out if I could only just find a way 
           C                  Bb        F 
I need somethin' that's gonna carry me away 
 
CHORUS: 
        Am        G              F 
Tell me where's a train when you need one 
Am                 G         F 
Lord knows I could sure use a ride 
       C          Bb  F 
Tell me where's a train when you need one 
C                         Bb      F          C 
'Cause I've never been as lonesome as I am tonight 
 
INTRO (2x) 
 
There's a set of rails that cuts a path to eternity 
And I know, yeah I know there's a boxcar waitin' there for me 
Ooh now maybe baby, maybe that's the place I can get you off my mind 
I need that lonesome whistle to blow 'til the end of time 
 
CHORUS 
 
INTRO (4x) 
 
CHORUS: 
Oh tell me where's a train when I need one 
God knows I could sure use a ride 
Tell me where's a train when you need one 
'Cause I've never been as low, I don't think I've been as low as I am tonight
