Verse-

Fmaj7                        Fmaj7/ G   Fsus2/ G
Everybody talks about some fateful day
Am7                           F
And I guess that this was mine
Fmaj7             Fmaj9      Fmaj7
I may be here to tell some kind of story
       Fmaj7/ G          Fsus2/ G     Cmaj  
  Fsus2(maj7)/ C
But I think it's gonna take a little time
              Cmaj    Fsus2(maj7)/ C
(That's all right)

Fmaj7
See I'm rockin' in a cradle
              Fmaj7/ G   Fsus2/ G    Fmaj7/ G
Down the hall somewhere and I am--
Am7              Fmaj
Lost inside a dream
Fmaj7
Maybe I am falling
Fmaj9        Fmaj7
Maybe I am flying
        Fmaj7/ G                      Cmaj
But I know if I am crying she is
Fsus2(maj7)/ C   Cmaj    Fsus2(maj7)/ C
Holding me

Pre-chorus-
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/marc_cohn/ghost_train_crd.html ]
Fmaj
And then the sky broke up
Fmaj
And then the rain came down
Fmaj                                         Cmaj   
C   Cmaj    Fsus2(maj7)/ C
And it washed away everything on the ground
Fmaj
Wash it away
Fmaj
Wash it away
Fmaj           Cmaj   Fsus2(maj7)/ C   Cmaj 
 Fsus2(maj7)/ C
Wash it away

Chorus-

Gmaj                      Gadd11
Now baby's got that bottle
                  Gmaj          Gadd11
Filled up with lightning and rain
               Fmaj7
He keeps calling out for someone
               Fmaj-Am7-Gadd11-Cmaj-Fsus2(maj7)/ C
But she's riding on a train
                     Cmaj  Fsus2(maj7)/ C
Riding on the ghost train
                  Fmaj
And she keeps on riding
                      Cmaj  Fsus2(maj7)/ C  Cmaj  Fsus2(maj7)/C
She's gonna keep on riding
              Fmaj
Mama keep on riding
         Cmaj
Keep on riding

Bridge- (I have attempted to tab the "entral melody line" for one guitar. There are 
instruments used during the bridge and you may wish to make your own arrangements for this 
This is what I play when performing this song solo on an acoustic guitar.)
