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