Down There By The Train
Written by Tom Waits
Published by Jalma Music Inc. ASCAP
E E7 A E
There's a place I know where the train goes slow
A B7
Where the sinner can be washed in the blood of the lamb
E E7 A
There's a river by the trestle down by Sinner's Grove
E B7 A E
Down where the willow and the dogwood grow
A E A E
You can hear the whistle, you can hear the bell
E7 B7
A E A
And there's room for the forsaken if you're there on time
E E7 A
You'll be washed of all your sins and all of your crimes
| E
|If you're down there by the train
|B7
|Down there by the train
|E
|Down there by the train
|A
|Down there by the train
|E B7 E
|Down there where the train goes slow
E E7 A E
There's a golden moon that shines up through the mist
E7 A B
And I know that your name can be on that list
E E7 A
There's no eye for an eye, there's no tooth for a tooth
E B7 A
I saw Judas Iscariot carrying John Wilkes Booth
He was...
{chorus}
If you've lost all your hope, if you've lost all your faith
I know you can be cared for and I know you can be safe
And all the shamefuls and all of the whores
And even the soldier who pierced the side of the Lord
Is...
{chorus}
Well, I've never asked forgiveness and I've never said a prayer
Never given of myself, never truly cared
I've left the ones who loved me and I'm still raising Cain
I've taken the low road and if you've done the same
Meet me...
{chorus (twice)}
--------------------
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official JOHNNY CASH tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
