G
D
A
D
I remember
well those depression days
G
D
They laid me down by the railroad tracks
I used to play Jimmy Rogers' records
A
And watch the big trains go up and back
D
I can still hear the lonesome whistles
G
as I gaze into my glass
D
One more drink and it's empty,
A
D
and then I'll ride back in the pack
I see myself out the station window,
G
D
I get a ticket to St. Louis town
It's back in the 1930s,
A
this country boy is city bound
D
I can hear those wheels a -spinnin'
Gm
G
And now they're startin' to roll
D
A -crossin' in an open railroad
A
D
I'm a -ridin' a -beginnin' to roll
G
Can't you hear that engine puffin'?
D
Can't you see those shiny rails?
Don't you feel that old coach a -swayin'
A
Like a ship without a sail?
D
If I live to be a hundred,
leave nothing around
G
still here safe
D
Tickets, please, as we get on board
A
D
that train of yesterday

The people wave as we go by
