[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
B7 E
I was five years old when daddy started packin'
A E
And I stood there by my mama as she cried
A
And the next thing that we knew,
E C#m
Some old train came passin' through
F# B7
And Daddy got on board, and we ain't seen him no more
[Chorus]
E B7 E
I wonder why trains make me lonesome
A E
It happens everytime that engine moans some
A
And when I hear that whistle blow
E C#m
Oh, it makes my heart sink low
F# B7 A E
And I wonder why trains make me lo - o - one - some
[Verse 2]
E B7 E
It was a cold dark night when I drove her to the depot
A E
There were tears in my eyes, and a ticket in her hand
A E C#m
And as we stood there by those tracks, I knew she wasn't comin' back
F# B7
So I turned and walked away, but I still miss her today
[Chorus]
E B7 E
I wonder why trains make me lonesome
A E
It happens everytime that engine moans some
A
And when I hear that whistle blow
E C#m
Oh, it makes my heart sink low
F# B7 A E
And I wonder why trains make me lo - o - one - some
[Verse 3]
C#m E
This office building looks like central station,
C#m E
And those ink spots look engine number nine
Am E C#m
And this couch on which I lay, supposed to haul my blues away
F# B7
That old pipe you keep tokin' is like an old cold enging smokin'
[Chorus]
E B7 E
I wonder why trains make me lonesome
A E
It happens everytime that engine moans some
A
And when I hear that whistle blow
E C#m
Oh, it makes my heart sink low
F# B7 A E
And I wonder why trains make me lo - o - one - some
[Outro]
F# B7 A E
Oh yes I wonder why trains make me lo - o - one - some
