Intro: G+G D MajorD G+G D MajorD
verse 1
D MajorD
Well, I hopped aboard a southbound freight,
and hid behind a packin' crate,
E minorEm
and settled back to catch me forty winks.
G+G A augmentedA
Got to thinkin' about my goodbye note,
G+G A augmentedA
and worryin' about the words I wrote,
G+G A7A7 D MajorD
and wonderin' what that woman's goin' to think.
verse 2
D MajorD
She'd a made a darn good wife,
and had me workin' nine to five,
E minorEm
but thats what made this rambling feelin' grow.
G+G A augmentedA
And freezin' 'neath an old tin hat,
G+G A augmentedA
ain't exactly where it's all at,
G+G A7A7 D MajorD
when the sun is shining bright in Mexico.
G+G D MajorD
So whine, you whistle, whine.
A augmentedA D MajorD
Keepin' moving me on the further down that line.
G+G D MajorD
Whine, you whistle, whine.
A augmentedA A7A7 D MajorD
There's a memory tryin' to catch up with my mind.

verse 3
D MajorD
Leavin' never hurt before,
but something's right outside that door,
E minorEm
and calls my name with every mile of track.
G+G A augmentedA
This lonley feeling deep inside,
G+G A augmentedA
is making it so hard to ride,
G+G A7A7 D MajorD
and now and then I'll catch me lookin' back.
G+G D MajorD
So whine, you whistle, whine.
A augmentedA D MajorD
Keepin' moving me on the further down that line.
G+G D MajorD
Whine, you whistle, whine.
A augmentedA A7A7 D MajorD
There's a memory tryin' to catch up with my mind.
