Intro:  E 

VERSES 1 & 2:   
E 
When I was a young boy, roamin’ on the railroad tracks 
Put copper pennies on the rails, locomotive come and squash ’em flat  
We’d run to fetch ’em back, we’d run to fetch ’em back 
Summer nights at Gran-ma's house, cozy in my bed  
Dreams of far off places, and other lives to be led  
C#m                        E 
Swirling in my head, swirling in my head  


    E/G#       A                                              
And there's a train in the distance, there’s a whistle calling  
           A                            Amaj7             C#m-B-A-B  E 
There's a train in the distance, silver moonlight falling  


verse 3:
  
E 
Now, I am a grown man, turning in my sleep  
Debts and obligations, family ties run deep  
C#m               E 
Promises to keep, promises to keep  
 
    E/G#       A  
But there's a train in the distance, there’s a whistle calling  
           A                                C#m7                     
There's a train in the distance, there’s a light rain falling
