G
Nobody knows how long it'll take me
C
Nobody knows where I'll go
G
I've got enough for two long winters
C
Then I'm coming home
Am
So hold on
                           C
I'll pack my things, get a move on
                         Am
Build us a house with my two own

[Chorus]
                                 C
Hands that are working hard for you
 G          C       G
'Cause I'm just leaving
Am      C        G
Taking this old train
G          C       G
Gold in the morning
       Am        C      G
When I see your face again
G
Two long years since I've seen your face
C
I've been working hard at a lonely pace
G
Three more days and a quick goodbye
         C
'Til I see my baby and kiss my wife
   Am
So hold on
                           C
I'll pack my things, get a move on
                          Am
Build us a house with my two own

[Chorus/Outro]
                                 C
Hands that are working hard for you
G          C       G
'Cause I'm just leaving
Am          C       G
Taking this old train
G          C       G
Gold in the morning
Am         C          G
When I see your face again
G          C       G
'Cause I'm just leaving
Am         C          G
Taking this old train
G          C       G
Gold in the morning
Am         C          G
When I see your face again
G          C       G
'Cause I'm just leaving
Am         C          G
Taking this old train
