Verse
C# C#7 F# C#
I remember as a boy how in wonderment and joy,
C# G#
I’d watch the trains as they roll by
C# C#7 F# C#
And the whistle’s lonesome sound you could hear for miles around,
C# G# C#
As they rolled across that Greenville Trestle high.
[Chorus]
F# C# C# G#
But the whistles don’t sound like they used to. Lately not many trains go by.
C# F# C#
Hard times across the land mean no work for a railroad man.
C# G# C#
And the Greenville Trestle now don’t seem so high.
[Verse]
C# C#7 F# C#
On the riverbank I’d stand with a canepole in my hand
C# G#
and watch the freight trains up against the sky.
C# C#7 F# C#
With the black smoke trailin’ back as they moved along the tracks,
C# G# C#
that runs across that Greenville Trestle high
[Chorus]
F# C# C# G#
But the whistles don’t sound like they used to. Lately not many trains go by.
C# F# C#
Hard times across the land mean no work for a railroad man.
C# G# C#
And the Greenville Trestle now don’t seem so high.
[Verse]
C# C#7 F# C#
When the lonesome whistles whine I get rambling on my mind
C# G#
and I wish they still sounded that way.
C# C#7 F# C#
As I turn and head for home, Lord she’d rumble, low, and moan
C# G# C#
toward the sunset at the close of day.
[Chorus]
F# C# C# G#
But the whistles don’t sound like they used to. Lately not many trains go by.
C# F# C#
Hard times across the land mean no work for a railroad man.
C# G# C#
And the Greenville Trestle now don’t seem so high.
