[Verse 1]
C G/B Fmaj7 C
There's a place I know, Where the train goes slow,
C G/B Am G D/F# G
Where the sinners can be washed, In the blood of the lamb,
F C G/B Am G
There's a river by the trestle, down by Sinners Grove,
F C G/B Am
Down where the willow and the dogwood grow,
F C Csus4 C
Down there by the train.
 
[Verse 2]
C G/B Fmaj7 C
You can hear the whistle, You can hear the bell,
C G/B Am G D/F# G
From the halls of heaven, to the gates of hell,
F C G/B Am G
And there's room for the forsaken, if you're there on time,
F C G/B Am
You'll be washed of all your sins and all of your crimes.
 
[Chorus]
F C G
If you're down there by the train, down there by the train,
C C G/B F
Down there by the train, down there by the train,
C G C Csus4 C
Down there where the train goes slow.
 
[Verse 3]
C Fmaj7 C
There's a golden moon that shines up through the mist,
C G/B Am G D/F# G
And I know that your name, will be on that list,
F C G/B Am G
And all of the shamefulls, and all of the whores,
F C G/B Am
And even the soldier who pierced the heart of the Lord.
 
[Chorus]

If you're down there by the train, down there by the train,

Down there by the train, down there by the train,

Down there where the train goes slow.
 
[Verse 4]
C Fmaj7 C
Well I've never asked for forgiveness, I've never said a prayer,
C G/B Am G D/F# G
I have never given of myself, and I've never truly cared,
F C G/B Am G
I've hurt the ones who loved me, and I'm still raising Cain,
F C G/B Am
I've taken the low road, and if you have done the same.
 
[Chorus]
G F C G
Meet me down there by the train, down there by the train

C G F
Down there where the train goes slow.
