              C                F
I heard the laughter, at the depot
         G                   C
But my tears, fell like the rain
                                           F
When I saw them place, that long.. white casket
                 C    F               C
In the baggage coach, of the evening train

                                  F
The baby's eyes, are red from... weeping
            G                      C
Its little heart, is filled.. with pain
                                  F
Oh Daddy cried, they're taking.. Mama
          C      F            C
Away from us, on the evening train

                                       F
As I turned to walk, away from.. the depot
             G                  C
It seemed I heard, her call my name
                                       F
Take care of my baby, and tell him.. darling
                C F                   C
That I'm going home, on the evening.. train

                                  F
I pray that God, will give me courage
          G                C
To carry on, 'til we meet again
                                   F
It's hard to know, she's gone… forever
                      C F                    C
They're carrying her home, on the evening train
                      C F                    C
They're carrying her home, on the evening train
