Em  Em  Em  Em  Em Em Em  D


[Verse 1]

     Em
Every time I hear the whistle whine
                                          D
From a lonesome locomotive coming down the line
  C                                        Em
It carries my mind away to another place in time
    Am                                               Em  D
When train travelin across the land was the only way to fly
     Em
Am I a fool to think it glamorous
                                         D
Box carring like a hobo it must have been rough
                                                   Em
But a simpler way of life is what it really means to me
        Am                                 D
When we weren’t so dependent on money to be free

[Chorus]

          C             D           Em
I hear you train are you travelin my way
        C                           D
Let me ride your rails right back to yesterday
   C                D         Em        C    D
Who knows what I could see from that old time machine
  Em               D       Em
But there you go again train travelin
C              D       Em
There you go again train travelin


[Verse 2]

   Em 
I’m lying on a rotten wooden floor
                                              D
Smell yesterday’s whiskey here rattling at the door
  C                                                Em
A railroad man looking for me I’m as scared as I can be
Am                                          D
I open my eyes and realise it’s just another dream

[Chorus]

          C             D           Em
I hear you train are you travelin my way
        C                           D
Let me ride your rails right back to yesterday
   C                D          Em       C    D
Who knows what I could see from that old time machine
  Em               D       Em
But there you go again train travelin
C              D       Em
There you go again train travelin

[Outro]

C              D       Em
There you go again train travelin
