[VERSE]
[C]Well I'm longing to ride on a freight trai[C7]n
Put a slo[F]uch hat down low on the ea[C]rs
I'm yearning to leave this old town on the fli[C7]ght
And lose a[D7]ll my troubles and cares [G7]
In th[C]is day of airplanes and highway[C7]s
Hey t[F]he slow way is sometimes the b[C]est
I'm lon[F]gin? to ride on a f[C]reight tr[A]ain
And be a g[D7]ood old ame[G7]rican gue[C]st

[CHORUS]
I[C] wanna live on the land that I've loved and I've labo[C7]red for
And sp[F]end a few days headed w[C]est
I'm lo[F]ngin? to ride on a fr[C]eight tr[A]ain
And be a g[D7]ood old ame[G7]rican gue[C]st

[VERSE]
[C]Well, the pressures of life they go[C7]t to me
And th[F]ey got down deep in my s[C]oul
I'm tired of the rat-race wanna go back to the sl[C7]ow pace
And hear a f[D7]ast train rattle and r[G7]oll

[CHORUS]
[C]I wanna live on the land that I've loved and I've lab[C7]ored for
And sp[F]end a few days headed w[C]est
I'm lo[F]ngin? to ride on a fr[C]eight tr[A]ain
And be a g[D7]ood old ame[G7]rican gue[C]st

[Chorus/Outro]
[C]I wanna live on the land that I've loved and I've lab[C7]ored for
And sp[F]end a few days headed w[C]est
I'm lo[F]ngin? to ride on a fr[C]eight tr[A]ain
And be a g[D7]ood old ame[G7]rican gue[C]st
Oh, yes I'm long[F]ing to ride on a fre[C]ight tra[A]in
And be a go[D7]od old am[G7]erican gue[C]st,
