Verse 1
If you [G]miss the train I'm [Em]on,
you will [Am]know that I am [C]gone
You can [Am]hear the whistle [C]blow
a hundred [D]miles,
A hundred [G]miles, a hundred [Em]miles,
A hundred [Am]miles, a hundred [C]miles,
You can [Am]hear the whistle [C]blow
a hundred [G]miles
Not a [G]shirt on my [Em]back,
not a [Am]penny to my [C]name
And the [Am]land that I once [C]loved
[D]
Lord I'm [G]one, Lord I'm [Em]two,
Lord I'm [Am]three, Lord I'm [C]four,
Lord I'm [Am]five hundred [C]miles
away from [D]home
A hundred [G]tanks along the [Em]square,
One man [Am]stands and stops them [C]there
Some day [Am]soon, the tide will [C]turn,
and I'll be [D]free
I'll be [G]free, I'll be [Em]free,
I'll come [Am]home to my [C]country,
Some day [Am]soon the tide will [C]turn
and I'll be [D]free
If you [G]miss the train I'm [Em]on,
you will [Am]know that I am [C]gone
You can [Am]hear the whistle [C]blow
a hundred [D]miles,
Lord I'm [G]one, Lord I'm [Em]two,
Lord I'm [Am]three, Lord I'm [C]four,
Lord I'm [Am]five hundred [C]miles
away from [D]home
