Raised By The Railroad Line Chords

(ver. 1)
Seldom Scene
Verse 1.

C                         F          C
The clickety sound of the southbound freight
C                                     G7
And the high speed hum of a passenger train
C                                  C/B           Am 
Becomes a part of the soul and the heart and the mind
Am             G                      C        
Of a boy who's raised by the railroad line

Verse 2.
C                             F        C      
The sound of a whistle at the crossin' road
C                                                            G7
And the tanks and the trucks and the tractors on the flatcar load
C                                  C/B           Am 
Becomes a part of the soul and the heart and the mind
Am             G                      C        
Of a boy who's raised by the railroad line

CHORUS:
C                 F              G          F
And the big round penny that you lay on the rails
        G           C
And the wheels mash flat                                  
C                    F            G
And a glimpse of the faces of the ladies
        F                     G
And the men in the engineer's hats

Verse 3.
C                               F     C          
And the brakeman waves from the red caboose
C                                          G7
He's a part of the past, never quite turns loose
C                                  C/B           Am 
Becomes a part of the soul and the heart and the mind
Am             G                      C        
Of a boy who's raised by the railroad line

And the men in the engineer's hats
