Riding That Bluegrass Train

G                                  C
Riding to Kentucky on a southbound train
G                            D                 G
Listen to that banjo driving rhythm through my brain
G                                                 C
Just left home this morning, can't say the reason why
    D             G                         C
I'm going down to Louisville to see my pony ride
D              G
To see my pony ride

[Chorus]
G
Now I'm riding that bluegrass train
Bb                    D
riding that bluegrass train
G
If that train's running right
              C        Bb
I'll be there tomorrow night
G                     C
riding that bluegrass train
D           C         G
riding that bluegrass train

[Verse 2]
G                                        C
Lost all my money on a horse that didn't show
D            G
Porter can I pay my way with this old banjo
G                                              C
I've got to get to Nashville before the sun is gone
D            G                                    C
Hit me with another shot while I play my lonesome song
D                G
Play my lonesome song

[Chorus]
G
Now I'm riding that bluegrass train
Bb                    D
riding that bluegrass train
G
Better hold what you got
                    C      Bb
She won't keep your supper hot
G                           C
rolling through the driving rain
D           C         G
riding that bluegrass train


[Verse 3]
G                                                      C
Stepped on to the platform and heard the church street blues
D                G            D                G
Someone stole my change boys, just for passing through
G                                            C
Got nothing in this world, except this old guitar
D                     G                           C
You can have it for a ticket, all the way to Baltimore
D                   G
All the way to Baltimore

[Chorus]
G
Now we're riding that new grass train
Bb                    D
riding that new grass train
G
You know right here at the gate
            C           Bb
If this cannonball runs late
G                                C
keep rolling through the driving rain
D           C         G
riding that bluegrass train
