Capo #4 
 
Inst open C Dm F G F C 
		C	     Dm 
Chorus    Steel rails, chasing sunshine round the bend 
	      F		    G                F	                C 
	    Winding through trees, like a ribbon in the wind 
	   C		               Dm 
	  I don't mind, not knowing what lies down the track 
		  F	         G		         F		           C 
	Cause I'm looking out ahead, to keep my mind from turning back 
C			          Dm 
It's not the first time, I found myself alone at dawn 
F	               G	          F		            C 
If I really had you once, then I'd have you, when I'm gone 
	C		Dm 
Whistle blowing, blowing lonesome, in my mind 
F	      G		    F	                C 
Calling me along, that never ending, metal line 
 
chorus 
 
inst.  C Dm F G F C       C Dm F G F C 
 
Sun is shinning, through the open box car door 
Lying in, my mind, with the things I've known before 
I've lost count of the hours, days, and times 
Just the rhythm of the rails, keeps the motion in my mind 
 
chorus 
        F		       G			 F                          C
