      MY BABY THINKS HE'S A TRAIN     Rosanne Cash

Intro
     C                
1.) It's 3 a.m. in the morning.  The train whistle is blowing.
     F                                   C 
It sounds like some lonesome song in my soul in my soul
G                       F                   C
Baby split the blanket He won't be back no more  go to 2nd verse
     C
2.) My baby thinks he's a train, he makes his whistle stop then he's gone again
 F                                      C
Some- times it's hard on a poor girl's brain -  a poor girl's brain
G                       F                          C
I'm    telling you boys my  baby thinks he's a   train.   go to chorus
     c
3.) Choo choo ain't just some train sound, 
  
it's the noise that you hear when my baby hits town.
           F                                 C
with his long hair flying, man he's hard to tame
G                            F                        C
What you suppose to do when your baby thinks he's a train  go to verse 4
     C
4.) He eats money like a train eats coal.  

He burns it up then he'll leave you in the smoke
         F                                      C
If you want to catch a ride, you wait till he unwinds -  he might unwind
G                        F                              C
He's just like a train, He's alway giving some tramp a ride go to chorus


CHORUS:
F                
Locomotion is the way he moves, 
        C                             C7
He drags me around just like an old caboose.
F 
I'm telling you girls that man's insane
 C             G        C
My baby thinks he's a train.

Instrumental ending.
