Southern Train by The Boxcars
Capo 3
F# B
There's a southern train leaVin' here this mornin'
G#m C#
It's heading south at ten forty-five
B F#
I want to be on board that engine when it leaves here
G#m F#
And ride her back home to Caroline
F# B
I want to feel that southern sunshine on my shoulders
G#m C#
And visit with those friends I used to know
B F#
I want to sit down on the front porch with my mother
G#m F#
And sing those gospel songs that she loves so
[Chorus]
B F#
I want to walk those mountain trails and smell that laurel
D#m C#
Take off my shoes and wade those mountain streams
B F#
And listen to the pine trees as they whisper
G#m F#
Welcome home my son, its not a dream
[Solo]
F# B G#m C# B F# G#M F# D?
F# B
Well I missed that southern train again this mornin'
G#m C#
This old cell'll be my home a long long time
B F#
But if I die now up here in this prison
G#m F#
Let me ride her back home one more time
[Chorus]
B F#
I want to walk those mountain trails and smell that laurel
D#m C#
Take off my shoes and wade those mountain streams
B F#
And listen to the pine trees as they whisper
G#m F#
Welcome home my son, its not a dream
B F#
And listen to the pine trees as they whisper
G#m F#
Welcome home my son, its not a dream
G#m F#
Welcome home my son, its not a dream
