Silverton Train chords by C.W. McCall


C.W. McCall Chords

Silverton Train
C.W. McCall 
(B)  not sure if they play it in the chorus or not I can't really tell
Capo at the first fret

E
She was born one mornin' on a San Juan summer
Back in eighteen and eighty and one
She was a beautiful daughter of the D and R G
                                    A
And she weighed about a thousand ton 
E
Well, it's a-forty-five mile through the Animas canyon
So they set her on the narra gauge
She drank a whole lot a' water
And she ate a lot of coal          A
And they called her the Silverton (Silverton train) 

(Chorus)
E                         A        (B)
Here comes the Silverton, up from Durango
E                         A           B
Here comes the Silverton, a-shovelin' coal
E                         A            (B)
Here comes the Silverton, up from the canyon
B       A         B        A       E
See the smoke and hear the whistle blow 

E

E
Well, now listen to the whistle in the Rock Wood cut
On the high line to Silverton town
And you're gonna get a shiver 
When you check out the river         A
Which is four hundred feet straight down 
E
Take on some water at the Needleton tank
And then a-struggle up a two-five grade
And by the time you get your hide 
Past the Snowshed slide             A
You've had a ride on the Silverton (Silverton train) 

Repeat Chorus

E  A  E  A  B  A  B  A

Repaet Chorus
E
Now, down by the station, early in the mornin'
There's a whole lot a' people in line
And they all got a ticket
On The Train To Yesterday A
And it's a-gonna leave on time 
E
Well, it's a forty-five mile up the Animas canyon
So they run her on the narra gauge
She takes a whole lot a' water
And she needs a lot of coal      A
And they call her the Silverton (Silverton train) 

Repeat Chorus

(Fade out) Same chords as chorus
Here comes the Silverton, up from Durango
Here comes the Silverton, a-shovelin' coal
Here comes the Silverton, up from the canyon
See the smoke and hear the whistle blow 

Here comes the Silverton, up from Durango
Here comes the Silverton, a-shovelin' coal
Here comes the Silverton, up from the canyon
See the smoke and hear the whistle blow
