[Intro]
G
[Verse]
D G Now I've been an engine driver all of my days C That's the only thing I can do G D G I hold a good head of steam everywhere that I'm seen C G Wherever my wheels rolled through C G Wherever my wheels rolled through
[Verse]
D G Well, I was nearly shut down in a Midwest town C Her hair was red, her eyes were blue G D G But the wheels on the track kept calling me back C G So, I bid that girl adieu C G D Yes, I bid that girl adieu
[Chorus]
G C Blow whistle, steel wheels keep on humming G Hold on darling, your engine driver's coming D He's coming through
[Verse]
G D G Some day I'll have to give up the iron lion C And then I'll know just what I will find G D G I'll find me some shack by some old railroad track C G So I can hear them motors whine C G D So I can hear them motors whine
[Chorus]
G Blow whistle, hear them steel rails a-humming C G Hold on darling, your engineer is coming D He's coming through
[Verse]
G D G Now I've been an engine driver all of my days C That's the only thing I can do G D G I hold a good head of steam anywhere that I'm seen C G Anywhere my trains rolled through C G D Anywhere my trains rolled through
[Chorus]
G Blow whistle, hear that steel rail a-humming C G Hold on girl, your engine driver's a-coming D Coming to you
