Capo 2
C F C
I was riding number 9, heading south from Carolina.
G C
I heard that lo-oonesome whistle blow.
C F C
Got in trouble, had to roam, left my girl, left my home.
G C
I heard that lo-oonesome whistle blow.
F
Just a kid, acting smart,
C
I went and broke my baby's heart.
D G
I guess I was too young to know.
C
They took me off that Georgia Main
F C
and locked me to a ball and chain.
G C
I heard that lo-oonesome whistle blow.
C F C G C (x2)
C F C
All I do is sit and cry as the evening train goes by.
G C
I heard that lo-oonesome whistle blow.
F C
I'll be locked here in this cell, till my body's just a shell
D G
and my head turns whiter than snow.
C
I'll never see that girl of mine
F C
'cos I'm in Georgia doing time.
G C
I heard that lo-oonesome whistle blow.
F C
I'll be locked here in this cell, till my body's just a shell
D G
and my head turns whiter than snow.
C
I'll never see that girl of mine
F C
'cos I'm in Georgia doing time.
G C
I heard that lo-oonesome whistle blow.
