By Robert Earl Keen
C             G    
One day after twenty five years

Am                     F
Head of service at the local Sears

      C                     G                F 
Helen Walker put her pencil down and walked away

    C                    G
And all they found was a little note

Am          F
adios was all she wrote

    C           G                 C  
But as she left someone heard her say
Chorus:
F                     C                 Am 
Gonna buy me a ticket to the end of the line

      F                D7                 G
Wanna feel the air and breathe the countryside

C                           G
Long as those wheels keep-a-rollin

Am           F           C     G     C 
I'll be satisfied, gonna ride, ride, ride.
Saturday night I was down at Joe's He was moppin' up getting ready to close He sat down and poured me one last brew And he said to me with a sideways glance If I ever get the chance I'm gonna sell this joint and this is what I'll do Chorus I suppose I could stay In this little town till my dying day But in my heart I know I gotta go So I'm standing at the station waitin' for the train Don't know when I'll be back again Mr. Engineer won't you let your whistle blow
