Old Train

1 b7 4 5
Old train I can hear your whistle blow
4 5 1 5
And I won’t be jumpin’ on again
1 b7 4 5
Old train I’ve been everywhere you go
4 5 1
And I know what lies beyond each bend

4 5 4 5 1
Old train each time you pass you’re older than the last
5 2 5
And it seems I’m too old for runnin’
4 5 4 5 1
I hear your rusty wheels grate against the rail
5 4
They cry with every mile and I think I’ll stay awhile

Old train I grow weary at the miles
And I miss the freedom that was mine
Old train just to think about those times
I’ll smile when you’re high-balling by
