 Subject: SHE TOOK THE ENGINEER
     I wish to submit one of my songs that has done very well on  country 
 music radio charts across Australia. The songÊhas just been re-recorded in 
 England by another  artist " Johnny Duncan " and released on Rollcoaster 
 Records. I have had many new pereformers ask me about the song and  could 
 I teach them the words and chord structure, it would be a lot easier if  
 they could just go to a web site. If you have any questions my direct 
 email address is dwayneelix@pocketmail.com.au If you are interested, I do 
 have other songs that have been  Hits on the country charts in Australia 
 that I can email you. Kind Regards  Dwayne Elix.

 NC My Baby [C]left me for someone [G] new
 
  
 
 And now she's [D] gone, I don't know what to [G] do.
 
  
 
 She lives by the [C] station in a railroad [G] shack
 
  
 
 With an engine [D] driver and she won't come [G] back.
 
  
 
 Ê
 
  
 
 [C]We had a [D] fine home [G] up on railroad hill
 
  
 
 And [C] all the things I bought her, well [G] their all up here [D]  still.
 
  
 
 [C]But my baby [D] left me, [G] gone so far from here
 
  
 
 [C]She didn't take the train, she [D] took the engin ö [G]-neer.
 
  
 
 Ê
 
  
 
 She packed her [C] suitcase, couldn't wait to [G] go
 
  
 
 Left the ring I [D] gave her and a chuck of [G] coal.
 
  
 
 She didn't make no [C] trouble, she walked out quieö[G]-tly
 
  
 
 and all she left be-[D]-hind her was loneliness and [G] me.
 
  
 
 Ê
 
  
 
 [C]My baby [D] left me, now [G] all I do is cry
 
  
 
 She [C] didn't give me no reason, she [G] didn't tell me [D] why
 
  
 
 I [C] wish she was [D] in my arms sweet [G] talking in my ear
 
  
 
 My [C] baby didn't take the train, she [D] took the engin ö [G]-neer.
 
  
 
 Ê
 
  
 
 Now every night I [C] lie here trying to get some [G] sleep
 
  
 
 Counting railway [D] carriages instead of counting [G] sheep.
 
  
 
 And even when Iâm [C] dreaming it's engineers and [G] trains
 
  
 
 Come to get my [D] baby, it's driving me in-[G]-sane.
 
  
 
 Ê
 
  
 
 Now [C] when a freight rolls [D] down the track, 
 
  
 
 it [G] chills me to the bone.
 
  
 
 I can't [C] stand to see a steaming kettle 
 
  
 
 or [G] hear a whistle [D] blow.
 
  
 
 [C]Cause my baby [D] left me, [G] gone so far from here
 
  
 
 [C]She didn't take the train, she [D] took the engin ö [G]-neer
 
  
 
 [C]My baby didn't take the train, she [D] took the engin ö [G]-neer.
