That Evening Sun
By: Old Crow Medicine Show
Capo 2
D
The alley dogs are barking chickens crowing down the lane
A
I feel just like that rooster with his mournful low refrain
G A G A
With the sundown on my shoulder justa hanging 'round the yard
G A D
I'll be leaving here tomorrow gonna catch an empty car
D
There's a thousand constellations in that brilliant beaming sky
A
But the earth is just one station on that lonesome starry line
G A G A
There's a distant whistle blowing down a rusty stretch of track
G A D
And I'm just an empty coal car on a train not coming back
Chorus:
G D
Well I hate to see that evening sun go down
Bm A
When it's lonesome coming down my trail
G D
And I know this train will take me where I'm bound
A D
But I hate to see that evening sun go down
D
Well the sidewalks have their street lamps, the city has their glow
A
And the poorboy has the moonlight walking in his shadow
G A G A
But the nighttime can't be trusted to return the morning sun
G A D
And my eyes have not adjusted to this black face I've got on
Chorus:
G D
Well I hate to see that evening sun go down
Bm A
When it's lonesome coming down my trail
G D
And I know this train will take me where I'm bound
A D
But I hate to see that evening sun go down
D
Don't the nighttime make you lonesome for that early morning sun
A
For that light upon that engine reaching t'wards the dawn
G A G A
You can spend your whole life racing down rusty railroad lines
G A D
It's the setting sun your chasing in that dark and rolling sky
Chorus:
G D
Well I hate to see that evening sun go down
Bm A
When it's lonesome coming down my trail
G D
And I know this train will take me where I'm bound
A D
But I hate to see that evening sun go down
