Long Black Train
Capo 3  Key-Bb

G
There's a long black train, comin down the line,
                              Em       G
Feeding off the souls that are lost and cryin'
G
Rails of sin only evil remains,
                           D           G
Watch out brother for that long black train,


G
Look to the heavens you can look to the sky,
                                Em             G
You can find redemption staring back into your eyes,
G
There is protection and there's peace the same,
                            D           G
Burning your ticket for that long black train,


(chorus)
G
Cause there's victory in the Lord I say,
               D
Victory in the Lord,
Em            G             C    G
Cling to the father and his holy name,
   Em       G             D           G
And don't go ridin on that long black train,


G
There's an engine there on that long black train,
                          Em                G
Making you wonder if your ride is worth the pain,
G
He's just a waitin' on your heart to say,
                    D           G
Let me ride on that long black train

(chorus)

G
Well I can hear the whistle from a mile away,
                       Em        G
It sounds so good but I must stay away,
G
That train is a beauty makin everybody stare,
                                 D         G
But its only destination is the middle of nowhere,

(chorus)
Em            G             C    G
Cling to the Father and his holy name,
   Em        G             D          G
And don't go ridin on that long black train,
    Em        G                D           G
Yea watch out brother for that long black train,
    Em        G           D
That devil's drivin' that long black train,
