G                               C                G
One day the train was passin' I caught it comin' by
G                                            D7
To look this old world over under God's blue sky
   G                              C             G
My darlin' stood there weepin' as I was lookin' back
G                             D7              G
I kiss my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track

G               C                                   G
Goodbye so long until I come back home you'll be my dream
G                                                      D7 
Goodbye so long there's lots of places that I've never seen
     G                       C                G
I'll always be a drifter but I'll be driftin' back
                              D7              G
To where I left cryin' in the smoke along the track

G                        C                G
I like to keep goin' it helps me when I'm blue
G                                             D7
I get the urge to travel that's all I want to do
 G                   C           G       
I know I just can't settle down because I like to roam
G                                  D7              G
And when I hear that whistle blow I've gotta move along

G          C                              G 
Goodbye so long there' s something down the track keeps callin' me
G                                                       D7
Goodbye so long I guess that's just the way I'll always be
   G                             C              G
So when I get that feelin' don't try to hold me back
G                                D7              G
I'd only leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track

G               C         G 
I know my baby loves me I love my baby too
G                                             D7
But she don't understand me when I'm feeling' blue 
    G                               C              G
And when I hear that whistle blow I hurry home and pack
G                               D7              G
And leave my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track

G           C                     G 
Goodbye so long I hate to leave you but I got to go
G                                                      D7
Goodbye so long it's coming' I just heard that whistle blow 
      G                          C                  G
It'll be here in a minute you'll wave and I'll look back
G                                 D7              G
I'm gonna leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track
