If anyone knows the chords to the song 2:10 Train by Tom Campbell & Linda Albertano I would really appreciate it if you posted them. Here's the first verse:

Woke up this morning, the sun refused to shine
Knew my baby left me, with trouble in mind
Rains every morning, evening is the same
It's going to be a long time till I hear the 2:10 train.

Thanks

TWO TEN TRAIN
Words and music by Linda Albertano & Tom Campbell
(c) 1965 Famous Music, ASCAP

Well I woke up this morning and the sun refused to shine
I knew my baby left me with a troublin' mind
It rains every mornin', Mmmm, and evening's the same
And it's gonna be a long time 'til I hear the Two Ten Train

Well I looked out my window and I couldn't keep from cryin.
I saw the train a leavin' take my baby down the line
The driver on that engine, he ain't no friend of mine
He's taken all the women and he's left the men behind

Well I won't be leavin' Big Bend for another seven years
Don't you find another baby to laugh away your tears
When I get back to Houston, Mmmm, I'm gonna shout and tell
'Bout how the Big Bend Bottom is a livin' burnin' hell

When your lovin' baby leaves you, Lord, it makes you feel so bad
Makes you think about the women and the good times you've had
Don't leave me down here, baby, all shackled to a chain
Won't you let me ride down with you all on the Two Ten Train.

Also on a very early Stone Poneys (Linda Ronstadt) LP.

One of theirs (along with "Orion Look Down" that I used to sing before I discovered more traditional folk.
