The Rocket chords

[VERSE]
[G]Son, could you help me on this [C]platform
[D]I'm not so good at climbing [G]stairs
I brought me a drink and some s[C]andwiches
I [D]wanted to just sit and watch the [G]trains

[VERSE]
[G]I come down here almost every [C]Sunday
My [D]grandkids they used to come [G]too
Now they drop me off at the [C]front gate
I [D]guess that they've got better things to [G]do

[CHORUS]
[G]No. 47, she's a [C]good one
[D]No. 63 sings like a [G]bird
No. 29, that's the [C]one they call 'The Rocket'
Hey [D]that's the saddest train I ever [G]heard

[VERSE]
[G]Son, I'm a decorated [C]veteran
I [D]fought in what they called 'The Great [G]War'
I [G]used to believe in everything it s[C]tood for
I [D]don't believe in much any[G]more

[CHORUS]
[G]No. 47, she's a [C]good one
[D]No. 63 sings like a [G]bird
No. 29, that's the [C]one they call 'The Rocket'
Hey [D]that's the saddest train I ever [G]heard

[VERSE]
[G]Son, you look just like my boy[C]
He [D]stood here almost 40 years [G]today
He looked so good in that brand new soldier's [C]uniform
But that [D]Rocket never brought him back [G]again

[CHORUS]
[G]No. 47, she's a [C]good one
[D]No. 63 sings like a [G]bird
No. 29, that's the [C]one they call 'The Rocket'
Hey [D]that's the saddest train I ever [G]heard
No. 29, that's the [C]one they call 'The Rocket'
Hey [D]that's the saddest train I ever [G]heard
