George Strait - Trains Make Me Lonesome (corrected) guitar chord

Title: Trains Make Me Lonesome

Album: Holding My Own

(capo 2)

E B7 E

I was five years old when daddy started packing

A E

And I stood there by my mama as she cried

A

And the next thing that we knew

E C#m

Some ole train came passing threw

F# B7

And daddy got on board and we ain't seen him no more

(chorus)

E B7 E (E,F#,Ab single chord)

I wonder why trains make me lonesome

A E (E,F#,Ab)

It happens every time that engine moan some

A E C#m

And I hear that whistle blow and it makes my heart sink low

F# B7 A E

And I wonder why trains make me lonesome

E B7 E

It was a cold dark night when I drove her to the deeple

A E

There was tears in my eyes and a ticket in her hand

A

And as we stood there by those tracks

E C#M

I knew she wasn't coming back

F# B7

So I turned and walked away but I still miss her today

(repeat chorus)

(bridge)

C#m E

This office building looks like central station

C#m E (E,F#,Ab single)

Those ink spots look like Engine number 9

Am7

And this couch on which I lay

E C#m

Supposed to hawl my blues away

F#

And that old pipe that you keep toking

B7

Is like an old cold engine smoking right there

(repeat chorus)

F# B7 A E

Oh yes I wonder why trains make me lonesome
