Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse:

    D        G         D
When I was a boy in the days of the train

        Bm            A
I'd sit by the tracks on a long summer day

          G
And I'd wave at the brakesman

           D
And he'd wave back at me

              Bm
While the thunderclouds rolled
🎸

A       D
Out of East Tennessee

Verse:

D       G                D
But the dreams of a boy disappear when you're grown

         Bm            A
And though I may dream, the railroads are gone

         G
The ties they are rotten

            D
And the tracks shot to hell

        Bm      A      D
Along with my dreams and the old railroad bell

Chrous:

D   G         A      D
In my dreams I ride the rails to California

      G     A       D
Workin' diners and farms along the way

    G       A        D
Or I'd hop a ride to hide across the border

     G        A        D
With a black eyed girl beside me all the way

D           G
Now the mountains are silent

            D
And the railroads are gone

            Bm            A
And the coal towns no longer hear the miners at dawn

             G            D
But the train whistle shrills out her memories to me

        Bm      A       D
While the thunderclouds roll out of East Tennessee

Chrous:

D   G         A      D
In my dreams I ride the rails to California

      G     A       D
Workin' diners and farms along the way

    G       A        D
Or I'd hop a ride to hide across the border

     G        A        D
With a black eyed girl beside me all the way

D           G
Now the mountains are silent

            D
And the railroads are gone

            Bm            A
And the coal towns no longer hear the miners at dawn

             G            D
But the train whistle shrills out her memories to me

        Bm      A       D
While the thunderclouds roll out of East Tennessee
