(G)
Take that Night Train To Memphis 
          (C)
Take that Night Train To Memphis
     (G)                      (D7)
And when you arrive at the station
          (G)
I'll be  right there to meet you 
        (C)
I'll be right there to greet you
    (G)          (D7)           (G)
So don't turn down my invi-tation.



        CHORUS 
       (C)
Halle-lu-jah! (Halle-lu-jah!)
       (G)
Halle-lu-jah! (Halle-lu-jah!)  
                                        (D7)
We'll be shoutin' hallelu-jah all the  day
         (G)                        (C)
Oh we'll have a jubilee, Down in Memphis, Tennessee
          (G)           (D7)               (G)
And we'll shout halle-lu-jah all the  way.



Take that Night Train To Memphis 
Take that Night Train To Memphis
You know how I'm longin' to see you
Leave at three-fifty-seven; arrive at eleven
And I'll be shoutin' "Halle-lu-jah!"

          CHORUS

Take that Night Train To Memphis 
Take that Night Train To Memphis
Tell that engineer to pull the throttle open
Keep that engine stack a-smokin', 
I'm not kiddin', I'm not jokin'
I'll soon be with my girl, I'm hopin'.

         CHORUS
