Smoke Along The Track Chords

G One day the train was passin', I C caught it comin' G by 
To look this old world over under God's blue D sky 
My G darlin' stood there weepin' as C I was lookin' G back 
I kissed my baby cryin' in the D smoke along the G track. 
 
G Goodbye, so long, un-{C} til I come back home, you'll be my G dream 
Goodbye, so long, there's lots of places that I've never D seen 
I'll G always be a drifter, but C I'll be driftin' G back 
To where I left you cryin' in the D smoke along the G track. 
  
I like to keep on goin' it helps me when I'm blue 
I get the urge to travel, that's all I want to do 
I know I just can't settle down because I like to roam 
And when I hear that whistle blow, I've gotta move along. 
  
Goodbye, so long, there' s something down the track keeps callin' me 
Goodbye, so long, I guess that's just the way I'll always be 
So when I get that feelin' don't try to hold me back 
I'd only leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track. 
  
I know my baby loves me, I love my baby too 
But she don't understand me when I'm feelin' blue 
And when I hear that whistle blow, I hurry home and pack 
And leave my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track. 
  
Goodbye, so long, I hate to leave you, but I've got to go 
Goodbye, so long, It's comin', I just heard that whistle blow 
It'll be here in a minute, you'll wave and I'll look back 
I'm gonna leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track.
