Em
Everytime I hear the whistle whine
                                           D
From a lonesome locomotive, comin down the line
   C                                        Em
It carries me mind away to another place in  time
     Am                                                 Em D
When train travelin across the land was the only way to fly

       Em
Am I a fool to think it glamorous
                                           D
Box-Carring like a hobo, it must have been rough
      C                                              Em
But a simpler way of life is what it really means to  me
     Am                                     D
When we weren't so dependent on money to be free

              C              D           Em
R: I hear you train, are you travelin my way
             C                                          D
   Won't you let me ride your rails right back to yesterday
       C                  D        Em       D        C
   Who knows what I could see from that ole time machine
       Em             D         Em
   But there you go again train travelin',
   C              D         Em
   There you go again train  travelin'.

    Em
I'm  lying on a rotten wooden floor
                                               D
Smell yesterday's whiskey here rattlin' at the door
  C                                                Em
A railroad man lookin' for me, I'm scared as I can be
  Am                                         D
I open my eyes and realize it's just another dream

R:  (2x)

C              D         Em
There you go again train travelin'.
