Chorus:

C		     F
Driving that train, High on cocaine

F                          F
Casey Jones you'd better, watch your speed

C               F
Trouble ahead, Trouble behind

F                      C                          C    F
And you know that notion, just crossed my mind


Verse 1:

C                D
This old engine, makes it on time

F                               G
Leaves Central Station 'bout a quarter to nine

C           G          D
Hits River Juction, at seventeen-to 

      F          E7                Am         G
At a quarter to ten you know it's trav'lin' again


(Chorus)


Verse 2:

C              C/A#   D
Trouble ahead, the   lady in red

F                        G
Take my advice, you'd be better off dead

C                             D
Switch-Man's sleeping, Train Hundred-and-Two is

F             E7        Am         G
On the wrong track and headed for you


(Chorus)


Solo 1 - C  D  F  G (one bar each) then F  E7  Am  G (half bar each)

Solo 2 - C  F (one bar) F (1 and a half) C (1 and a half) F to the end 


C  F


Verse 3:

C                    D
Trouble with you is Trouble with me, Got

F                  G
Two good eyes but still don't see

C                         D
Come round the bend, you know it's the end, 

     F       E7              Am          G
The fireman screams and the engine just gleams



(Chorus twice)

then the chorus with C  Bb (half bar) F (that half plus another one and half) 

C (half plus whole bar) Bb (half bar) F (half bar plus TWO whole)

Bb (half) F (half plus one and half)  C (half plus one)

Bb (half) F (half plus TWO)

and then:

A7                 D      G7              C
And you know that notion just crossed my mind
