The Evening Train Teclado

	  
Verse 
C                           F 
I heard the laughter at the depot, 
             G             C 
But my tears fell like the rain 
                                       F 
When I saw them place that long, white casket 
               C         G          C 
In the baggage coach of the evening train. 
                             F 
The baby's eyes are red from weepin' 
            G                    C 
It's little heart is filled with pain. 
                                       F 
"Oh, daddy," it cried, "they're taking mama 
     C              G       C 
Away from us on the evening train."

As I turned to walk away from the depot, 
            G                 C 
It seemed I heard her call my name 
                                    F 
"Take care of my baby and tell him, darling' 
               C           G       C 
That I'm going home on the evening train. 
                             F 
I pray that God will give me courage 
         G               C 
To carry on till we meet again. 
                             F 
It's hard to know she's gone forever.

They're carrying her home on the evening train

I pray that God will give me courage

They're carrying her home on the evening train
