STARLIGHT ON THE RAILS

D


I CAN HEAR THE WHISTLE BLOWING
HIGH AND LONESOME AS CAN BE
TONIGHT THE RAIN IS SLOWLY FALLING
AND IT'S FALLING JUST FOR ME

CH
LOOKING BACK ALONG THE ROAD I'VE TRAVELED
THE MILES COULD TELL A MILLION TALES
THE YEARS ARE LIKE A ROLLING FREIGHT TRAIN
COLD AS STARLIGHT ON THE RAILS

A MAN THAT LIVES OUT ON THE HIGHWAY
IS LIKE A CLOCK THAT CAN'T TELL TIME
A MAN THAT  MAKES HIS LIFE A RAMBLER 
IS LIKE A SONG WITHOUT A RHYME

CH

I THINK ABOUT MY HOME AND FAMILY
MY HOUSE AND EVERYTHING IT MEANS
THE BLACK SMOKE ROLLING OUT BEHIND ME
IS LIKE A TRAIL OF BROKEN DREAMS
