Cover song Composed by Hedy West and her Uncle humming a tune

lyrics

C Am Dm F
If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone
G F G7
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles,
C Am Dm F
A hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles,
G G7 C
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles.

C Am Dm F
Lord I'm one, lord I'm two, lord I'm three, lord I'm four,
G F G7
Lord I'm 500 miles from my home.
C Am Dm F
500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles
G G7 C
Lord I'm five hundred miles from my home.

C Am Dm F
Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name
G F G7
Lord I can't go a home this a way
C Am Dm F
This a away, this a way, this a way, this a way,
G G7 C
Lord I can't go a home this a way.

If my love should ask me so
I would railroad no more
I would side track my engines & go home & go home & go home & go home & go home
I would side track my engines and go home

C Am Dm F
If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone
G F G7
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
