   Re: Chords to "East Bound Freight Train"

     Here's the best I can do to East Bound Freight -I also think it's a neat   
   song and I've been doin' it for forty years. Some chords come in the middle   
   of a word and you'll have to figure out where to put them - I've not been   
   successful placing chords above the words in WORD and keeping the formatting   
   correct.
