          Gm            Bb5
Hear that long lonesome train
                      Gm
whistle crying in the wind
          Gm            Adim
Hear that long lonesome sound
                      Gm
that's become my only friend
 
        Gm              Bb5
When it whispers out my name
                               Gm
that's when the tears begin to roll
            Gm               Adim
Because the world out there awaits me
                        Gm
and I know it's time to go
 
          F             Gm
Hear that long lonesome train
          F             Gm

          F             Gm            Adim       (Intro)
Hear that long lonesome train whistle cry, in the wind
 
          Gm             Bb5
There's a place on the horizon
                        Gm
and it holds a fate for me
       Gm                 Adim
When I hear that lonesome sound
                         Gm
then I know it's time to see
 
 
          F             Gm
Hear that long lonesome train
          F             Gm

Hear that long lonesome train whistle cry, in the wind
