[Verse]
Dm
Hear that old train whistle
Dm
Howling in the night
Dm
If that flyer's southbound
Dm
Things will be all right
    A7                                          A7
I'm leaving now, leaving now, leaving now-ow-oooow
                                               (break)
          a   g    f    e
                           | Dm | % | % | % |
I'm gonna get back home somehow


[Verse]
Dm
Don't nobody tell me
Dm
Baby’s been untrue
Dm
If she's been unfaithful
  Dm
I don't know what I'll do
    A7                                          A7
I'm leaving now, leaving now, leaving now-ow-oooow
                                               (break)
          a   g    f    e

[Middle 8]
G                                   Dm
Never thought that I could miss her so
  G                                A7
I never thought I could, but now I know


[Verse]
Dm
The sound of the old train whistle
Dm
Makes me want to cry
  Dm
Reminds me of that lonely feeling
Dm
When I said goodbye
    A7                                          A7
I'm leaving now, leaving now, leaving now-ow-oooow
                                               (break)
          a   g    f    e
