Verse
G G7 C G
I remember as a boy how in wonderment and joy,
G D
I’d watch the trains as they roll by
G G7 C G
And the whistle’s lonesome sound you could hear for miles around,
G D G
As they rolled across that Greenville Trestle high.
[Chorus]
C G G D
But the whistles don’t sound like they used to. Lately not many trains go by.
G C G
Hard times across the land mean no work for a railroad man.
G D G
And the Greenville Trestle now don’t seem so high.
[Verse]
G G7 C G
On the riverbank I’d stand with a canepole in my hand
G D
and watch the freight trains up against the sky.
G G7 C G
With the black smoke trailin’ back as they moved along the tracks,
G D G
that runs across that Greenville Trestle high
[Chorus]
C G G D
But the whistles don’t sound like they used to. Lately not many trains go by.
G C G
Hard times across the land mean no work for a railroad man.
G D G
And the Greenville Trestle now don’t seem so high.
[Verse]
G G7 C G
When the lonesome whistles whine I get rambling on my mind
G D
and I wish they still sounded that way.
G G7 C G
As I turn and head for home, Lord she’d rumble, low, and moan
G D G
toward the sunset at the close of day.
[Chorus]
C G G D
But the whistles don’t sound like they used to. Lately not many trains go by.
G C G
Hard times across the land mean no work for a railroad man.
G D G
And the Greenville Trestle now don’t seem so high.
