Tom:
Em One night I dreamed I was in slavery
Am C D Bm Em 'Bout 1850 was the time
G B7 Sorrow was the only sign
Am C D Bm Em Nothing around to ease my mind
Em Out of the night, there came a lady
Am C D Bm Em Leading a distant Pilgrim band
G B7 "First mate" she cried, pointing her hand
Am C D Bm Em "Make room on board for this young man" [Chorus]
Em She said come on up, I got a lifeline
Am C D Bm Em Come on up to this train of mine
Em Come on up, I got a lifeline
Am C D Bm Em Come on up to this train of mine
D C She said her name was Harriet Tubman
G B7 D Bm Em And she drove for the underground railroad [Verse 2]
Em Hundreds of miles we traveled onward
Am C D Bm Em Gathering slaves from town to town
G B7 Seeking every lost and found
Am C D Bm Em Setting those free that once were bound
Em Finally, my heart was growing weaker
Am C D Bm Em I fell by the wayside's sinking sand
G B7 Firmly did this woman stand
Am C D Bm Em She lifted me up and she took my hand [Chorus]
Em And she said, come on up, I got a lifeline
Am C D Bm Em Come on up to this train of mine
Em Come on up, I got a lifeline
Am C D Bm Em Come on up to this train of mine [Break]
G B7 Who are these children dressed in red?
Em C D Bm Em They must be the ones that Moses led.
G B7 Who are these children dressed in red?
Em C D Bm Em They must be the ones that Sister Moses led. [Chorus]
Em She said, come on up, I got a lifeline
Am C D Bm Em Come on up to this train of mine
Em Come on up, I got a lifeline
Am C D Bm Em Come on up to this train of mine
D C She said her name was Harriet Tubman
G B7 D Bm Em And she drove for the underground railroad [Verse 3]
Em Then I awoke, no more I faltered
Am C D Bm Em Gathering strength from the tasks we're shown
G B7 Sister's and brothers fleeing their homes
Am C D Bm Em Their history, their families, all they've known
Em They are fleeing their homes in Guatemala
Am C D Bm Em Chile, Brazil, El Salvador
G B7 Fleeing from the prisons and war
Am C D Bm Em Thru the night and thru Mexico to our door [Chorus]
Em Will we say come on up, I got a lifeline
Am C D Bm Em Come on up to this train of mine
Em Come on up, I got a lifeline
Am C D Bm Em Come on up to this train of mine [Break]
G B7 Who are these children dressed in red?
Em C D Bm Em They must be the ones that Moses led.
G B7 Who are these children dressed in red?
Em C D Bm Em They must be the ones that Sister Moses led. [Tag]
Am D Em You got to follow the drinking gourd
Am D Em You got to follow the drinking gourd
Am Bm Em You got to follow the drinking gourd
