Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I heard the laughter at the depot

But my tears, fell like the rain

When I saw them place that long white casket

In the baggage coach, of the evening train

The babies eyes are red from weepin’

Its little heart is full of pain

Oh daddy it cried their takin’ momma

Away from us, on the evening train

Bridge

similar to intro)

As I turned to walk, away from the depot

It seemed I heard her call my name

Take care of my baby, and tell him darling

That I’m going home, on the evening train

I pray that god will give me courage

To carry on till we meet again

Its hard to know, she’s gone forever

Their carrying her home, on the evening train

2nd Bridge(,,,)

I pray that god will give me courage

To carry on till we meet again

It’s hard to know, she’s gone forever

Their carrying her home, on the evening train

Their carrying her home, on the evening train
