G: 320033 C: x32010 D7: xxx212 D: xxx232 Note: You can also play a regular D in place of the D7, both sound correct. Just don't play D7 in place of D in the chorus, it sounds a bit off. Intro: G (With some country/bluegrass plucking) (Verse 1)G Come all you rounders if you wanna hear,C D7 The story about a brave engineer.G Casey Jones was the roller's name,D7 G On a 68 wheeler course he rode to fame.

(Chorus)D Casey Jones, climbed in the cabin,G D Casey Jones, orders in his hand,G D Casey Jones, leaning out the window,G D G Making a trip to the Promised Land. (Verse 3)G Through South Memphis Yards on a fly,C D7 Rain been a falling and the water was high.G Everybody knew by the engine's moan,D7 G That the man at the throttle was Casey Jones. (Verse 4)G Well Jones said fireman now don't you fret,C D7 Sam Webb said "We ain't a giving up yet,G We're eight hours late with the southbound mail,D7 G We'll be on time or we're leaving the rails."
