Raised By The Railroad Line Chords

  			


verse 1. 

C                         F          C 
The clickety sound of the southbound freight 
C                                     G7 
And the high speed hum of a passenger train 
C                                  C/B           Am  
Becomes a part of the soul and the heart and the mind 
Am             G                      C         
Of a boy who's raised by the railroad line 

verse 2. 
C                             F        C       
The sound of a whistle at the crossin' road 
C                                                            G7 
And the tanks and the trucks and the tractors on the flatcar load 
C                                  C/B           Am  
Becomes a part of the soul and the heart and the mind 
Am             G                      C         
Of a boy who's raised by the railroad line 

C                 F              G          F 
And the big round penny that you lay on the rails 
        G           C 
And the wheels mash flat                                   
C                    F            G 
And a glimpse of the faces of the ladies 
        F                     G 
And the men in the engineer's hats 

verse 3. 
C                               F     C           
And the brakeman waves from the red caboose 
C                                          G7 
He's a part of the past, never quite turns loose 
C                                  C/B           Am  
Becomes a part of the soul and the heart and the mind 
Am             G                      C         
Of a boy who's raised by the railroad line
