Chord Gitar dan Lirik Lagu Casey Jones Oleh Johnny Cash

Caller called Casey ’bout a half past four
He kissed his wife at the station door
Climbed in the cabin with his orders in his hand
Said this is my trip to the Promised Land

CHORUS:
(Casey Jones) Climbed in the cabin
(Casey Jones) Orders in his hand
(Casey Jones) Leanin’ out the window
Takin’ a trip to the Promised Land

Through South Memphis yards on a fly
Rain been a-fallin’ and the water was high
Everybody knew by the engine’s moan
That the man at the throttle was Casey Jones

KEY CHANGE:
Key: Ab / Capo: 1 / Play: G
Well Jones said Fireman don’t you fret
Sam Webb said I ain’t a-givin’ up yet
We’re eight hours late with the south-bound mail
Be on time or we’re leavin’ the rails

REPEAT CHORUS

Dead on the rail was a passenger train
Blood was a-boilin’ in Casey’s brain
Casey said Hey look out ahead
Sam jump Sam jump or we’ll all be dead

With a hand on the whistle and a hand on the brake
North Mississippi was wide awake
IC railroad officials said
He’s a good engineer to be a-layin’ dead

REPEAT CHORUS

KEY CHANGE:
Key: F / Capo: 1 / Play: E

Headaches and heartaches and all kinds of pain
Are all a part of the railroad train
Sweat and toil the good and the grand
Are part of the life on the railroad man

REPEAT CHORUS
