Slow Train Chords

Slow Train (Staples Singers)
  (tabbed by B. Brown for D. Hardy)

 The opening riff is a open E string bass with descending tremble line on the G and B strings.


 The chords are simple. It starts with E then A for the chorus, then E to B to A for the 
verse. Listen to the recording
to get the feel of it. Have fun.

    Chorus

 E              A
Its slow,slow train
               E
But its moving on


 E
I got my ticket
 B
Don't don't pass me by
 E
If i don't get on
 B
OOh i'll break right down and cry
 E
You only got one life
 B
To live on this earth
    A
Oh get me there won't you please
          E
Conductor sir

  (repeat chorus)

Everybody gets a ticket

You, you and me

So easy to catch a ride

Thats how its got be

Everyone goes there

Just to prove he's the Man

Be easy on yourself

For there's no helping hand
