[Verse 1]
Bm C# E Bm
In the Siskiyou Mountains, the old railroad winds
Bm E Em F#
Through the golds of the maples and the green of the pines
Bm D A G
Up to Tunnel 13, the Southern she climbs
Bm A Bm
And three bandits waiting with evil in mind
[Verse 2]
Bm C# E Bm
The D'Autremont brothers had chosen their road
Bm E Em F#
Chosen to live by a criminal code
Bm D A G
Word was the mail car was loaded with gold
Bm A Bm
The brothers had heard it, or had maybe been told
[Instrumental]
Bm D E G

[Bridge]
D Em A
They wanted no witnesses, that was a fact
Bm G A
The brothers were bent on a barbarous act
D G A
Gold there was none, only sadness and tears
F# Bm G A
And the law coming after them year after year
[Verse 3]
Bm C# E Bm
Three bandits, hearts filled with resentment and hate
Bm E Em F#
Killed mail clerk Elvyn Daugherty, engineer Sydney Bates
Bm D A G
With shotgun and pistols, they were panicking when
Bm A Bm
They killed brakeman Coyle Johnson and fireman Marvin Seng
[Verse 4]
Bm C# E Bm
Robbing and looting is as old as the hills
Bm E Em F#
They're still jumping freight trains with crowbars and drills
Bm D A G
A hundred years later in Downtown LA
Bm A Bm
They rob the Union Pacific damn near every day
[Verse 5]
Bm C# E Bm
Four good men lay murdered in the dogwoods and pines
Bm E Em F#
Leaving widows and children and heartbreak behind
Bm D A G
Tunnel 13 is the place in the song
Bm A Bm
Where the beautiful redwood for my guitar came from
