  			D               A 
Thrown off the bridge 
       D            G 
To the river by the ridge 
        D             G  D 
Was the iron mountain baby 

D             A 
A man walking by 
         D            G 
Said he heard a little cry 
        D              A   D 
And he found him in a suitcase 

D           A 
Fifty feet down 
          D            G 
from the train to the ground 
       D               A  D 
It's a miracle that he survived 
D            A              D             G 
What are the chances that a man would be standin' there 
     D                G    D 
And take him home to his wife 

 
G      D

G      D          A            D

Five days old with a hand that could hold in a grip around your finger 
D          A          D               G               D               G   D 
Old Sarah Jane, no she never did complain, cause she loved the little stranger 

     D                   A 
She brought him back to health 
        D            G 
And she kept him for herself 
          D               A     D 
When some women tried to claim him 
            D          A            D              G 
"If you'd been a good mama then you never would've wanna 
          D                     G    D 
Gone and thrown him off of the train then"

G    D         A      D

   D             A 
A picture in the paper 
D                       G 
Showed the baby like an angel 
         D              A   D 
With the savior and the suitcase 
D           A 
What kind of devil 
           D                  G 
Could have thrown the little fellow 
         D              G     D 
Off the train in the first place? 
      D           A           D            G              D          A D 
His mama must've died givin' birth to the child, and the daddy went crazy 
 D          G        D                 G               A          D 
Got on the train with a heart full of pain and took it out on the baby

A civil war vet went to see if he could get a bit of timber for a new barn 
     D        A              D         G             A          D 
The number 4 sped. From the train overhead came the itty bitty newborn
