Starlight On The Rails Cifras

[Verse 1]
G                      D
I can hear the whistle blowing
                     G
High and lonesome as can be
C                       G
Tonight the rain is softly falling
D                    G
And its falling just for me
 
[Chorus]
        D                        G
Looking back along the road I've traveled
    D                          G
The miles could tell a million tales
                C                 G
Each year Lord, like some rolling freight train,
   D                        G
Is cold as starlight on the rails
 
[Verse 2]
                          D
I think about my home and family
                               G
My house and all the things it means
    C                        G
The black smoke trailing out behind me
   D                       G
Is like a string of broken dreams
 
[Chorus]
        D                        G
Looking back along the road I've traveled
    D                          G
The miles could tell a million tales
                C                 G
Each year Lord, like some rolling freight train,
   D                        G
Is cold as starlight on the rails

[Verse 3]
G                          D
Now if you live out on the highway
                                       G
You're like some clock that can't tell time
    C                      G
And if you spend your life just rambling
     D                     G
Your like a song without a rhyme
 
[Chorus]
        D                        G
Looking back along the road I've traveled
    D                          G
The miles could tell a million tales
                C                 G
Each year Lord, like some rolling freight train,
   D                              G
Is cold, cold as starlight on the rails
