[Intro Chorus]
    A7                            D7
How long, Babe7, how long has that evening train been gone

 D  A7    A7  E7           A7
How long how long baby how long

[Verse 1]
    A                                            A7
Yeah, and I stood at the station, watch my baby leaving town
        D                       D7
Feeling disgusted, nowhere could peace be found

[Chorus]
    A             E7              A  A7
How long, how how long, baby how long?

[Verse 2]
  A                                        A7
I can hear the whistle blowing, but I can’t see no train
         D                                 D7
And it’s deep down in my heart baby, there lies an aching pain

[Chorus]
    A             E7              A  A7
How long, how how long, baby how long?

[Verse 3]
A                                         A7
Sometimes I feel so disgustin' and I feel so blue
       D                             D7
That I hardly know what in this world baby just to do

[Chorus]
    A             E7              A  A7
How long, how how long, baby how long?

[Verse 4]
A                                   A7
And if I could holler, like I was a mountain train
    D                        D7
I'd go up on the mountain and I'd call my baby back

[Chorus]
    A             E7              A  A7
How long, how how long, baby how long?

[Verse 5]
A                                 A7
And someday you gonna be sorry that you done me wrong
    D                    D7
But it will be too late, I will be gone

[Chorus]
      A7        E7           A7
For so long, so long, baby so long?

[Verse 6]
A                      A7
My mind gets a ramblin', I feel so bad
       D7                       D7
Thinkin' about the bad luck that I have had

[Chorus]
        A7             E7            A7
For how long, how, how long, baby how long?
