Trains Make Me Lonesome

E

                           B7            E
I was five years old when daddy started packin'
        A                            E
And I stood there by my mama as she cried
         A
And the next thing that we knew,
          E                   C#m
Some old train came passin' through
     F#                         B7
And Daddy got on board, and we ain't seen him no more

   E          B7             E
I wonder why trains make me lonesome
    A                             E
It happens everytime that engine moans some
            A
And when I hear that whistle blow
         E                 C#m
Oh, it makes my heart sink low
        F#         B7           A              E
And I wonder why trains make me lo - o - one - some

          E                       B7               E
It was a cold dark night when I drove her to the depot
            A                                     E
There were tears in my eyes, and a ticket in her hand
           A                                      E             C#m
And as we stood there by those tracks, I knew she wasn't comin' back
      F#                            B7
So I turned and walked away, but I still miss her today

   E          B7             E
I wonder why trains make me lonesome
    A                             E
It happens everytime that engine moans some
            A
And when I hear that whistle blow
         E                 C#m
Oh, it makes my heart sink low
        F#         B7           A              E
And I wonder why trains make me lo - o - one - some

       C#m                               E
This office building looks like central station,
          C#m                           E
And those ink spots look engine number nine
          Am                                E            C#m
And this couch on which I lay, supposed to haul my blues away
          F#                              B7
That old pipe you keep tokin' is like an old cold enging smokin'

   E          B7             E
I wonder why trains make me lonesome
    A                             E

And when I hear that whistle blow
         E                 C#m

        F#         B7            A              E
And I wonder why trains make me lo - o - one - some

          F#         B7             A              E
Oh yes I wonder why trains make me lo - o - one - some
