DOne day the train was passin
I  Gcaught it comin' Dby
DTo look this old world over under God's blue  Asky
    D                               G             D
My  darlin' stood there weepin' as  I was looking back
DI kissed my baby cryin' in the  Asmoke along the Dtrack
DGoodbye so long unGtil I come back home
You'll be my  Ddream
DGoodbye so long, there's lots of places that I've never  sAeen
I'll Dalways be a D7drifter but  GI'll be driftin'  Dback
To where I left you cryin' in the  Asmoke along the  Dtrack
DI like to keep on goin' it Ghelps me when I'm Dblue
DI get the urge to travel  that's all I want to dAo
I Djust can't settle down becaGuse I like to Droam
DAnd when I hear that whistle blow  I've Agotta move Dalong
DGoodbye  so long  there's Gsomething down the track keeps callin' Dme
DGoodbye  so long  I guess that's just the way I'll always Abe
So Dwhen I get that D7feelin' don't Gtry to hold me Dback
I'd Donly leave you crying in that Asmoke along the Dtrack
EI know my baby loves me  I Alove my baby Etoo
EBut he don't understand me when I'm feelin  bBlue

E                               B               E
And leave my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track.
