Through The Window Of A Train Teclado

	  
E                         A 
Everybody drives the same old roads these days 
B                           A        E 
Don't see a thing, but they know the way 
E                            A 
Every mile's a marker, every town's the same 
B                         A      E 
Another place to stop but not to stay 


 
E                           A 
Daddy was a brakeman on the L&N 
B                          A          E 
Sometimes he'd let me ride along with him 
E                           A 
No matter where we'd stop along the way 
B         A        E 
Everybody knew his name 

 
C#m         A          E 
A different story down every line 
E                                    B 
People workin' hard just to live and die 
C#m      A         E 
I saw it all once upon a time 
A           B           E 
Through the window of a train 




E                        A 
Then we started back the way we came 
B                            A       E 
Like people moving through a picture frame 
E                               A 
Seems the whole world's further down the track 
B              A       E 
But I'm always looking back 


 
E                         A 
I don't expect you all to understand 
B                         A        E 
Or see the country like a railroad man 
E                          A 
So many things you'd never realize 
B               A             E 
Unless you saw 'em with these eyes 

 
C#m           A                 E 
Birmingham to Jackson, hear the whistle call 
E                                    B 
And the sun goes down like a big red ball 
C#m                  A      E 
In my memory I still see it all 
A            B          E 
Through the window of a train
