[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D I was riding number nine G D Going south from Caroline A D I heard that lonesome whistle blow
[Verse 2]
D I got in trouble had to roam G D Left my gal and left my home A D I heard that lonesome whistle blow
[Chorus]
G Just a kid actin′ smart D I went and broke my darling's heart E A I guess I was too young to know
[Verse 3]
D They took me off the Georgia main G D Locked me to a ball and chain A D I heard that lonesome whistle blow

[Verse 4]
D All I do is sit and cry G D As the evenin′ train goes by A D I heard that lonesome whistle blow
[Chorus]
G I'll be locked here in this cell D 'Til my body′s just a shell E A And my hair turns whiter than snow
[Verse 5]
D I′ll never see that gal of mine G D 'Cause I′m in Georgia doin' time A D I heard that lonesome whistle blow
[Chorus]
G I'll be locked here in this cell D 'Til my body′s just a shell E A A7 And my hair turns whiter than snow
[Verse 6]
D I'll never see that gal of mine G D 'Cause I′m in Georgia doin′ time A D I heard that lonesome whistle blow
