Вступление
[Intro]
C F C C G C
[Verse 1]
C F C
Walkin’ thru the alley way on down that dusty road
C G C
I bear a heavy burden and I drag this heavy load
C F C
All my songs, and all my poems, and all my little dreams
C G C
Went up in smoke the day I jumped that train to New Orleans
[Verse 2]
C F C
The whistle blew, they locked the doors and we were on our way
C G C
Darkness rolled across the sky to mark that dreadful day
C F C
The porter dipped his feather pen and asked us for our names
C G C
My life would change the day I took that train to New Orleans
[Chorus]
Am F
Sometimes when I stand at that fork in the lane
Am F
And the clouds up above ain’t got no rain
Am F
The choice I make, is the path in between
C G C
And I board that train to New Orleans
[Instrumental]
Am F Am F Am F C G C
[Verse 3]
C F C
A bearded man sat next to me and asked me for a smoke
C G C
I passed the fire and waited there and listened when he spoke
C F C
He talked of life, and talked of fear and he told me what he’d seen
C G C
Said that I should not be on that train to New Orleans
[Verse 4]
C F C
As time rolled by he pointed out the chains across the door
C G C
There’s no way in and no way out we’re here forevermore
C F C
Suddenly across the car I heard the Porter scream
C G C
You're the one who paid the fare for the train to New Orleans
[Chorus]
Am F
Sometimes when I stand at that fork in the lane
Am F
And the clouds up above ain’t got no rain
Am F
The choice I make, is the path in between
C G C
And I board that train to New Orleans
[Instrumental]
Am F Am F Am F C G C
[Verse 5]
C F C
There’s a mystery to this life, there’s a secret in this tale
C G C
When you’re in that alley way walkin’ down that dusty trail
C F C
There’s a sign post pointin’ to the station down the street
C G C
But if you board that train you’ll never get to New Orleans
[Chorus]
Am F
Sometimes when I stand at that fork in the lane
Am F
And the whistle down the street seems to call my name
Am F
And I walk in the steps of Kings and Queens
C G C
As I board that train to New Orleans
C G C
This train ain’t goin’ to New Orleans
