Traveling to the tune of freight wheels

                 C#m
Is such a lonely sound

E
Here that lonesome whistle blow

                   B
And leave another town

  A                 B
I wish someone was waiting

    A                 B
Somewhere to welcome me

A                  E
Then those silver ribbons

      A                       E
Would see no more of me
[Chorus]

Dont ask me where Im going

A            B         E
Dont ask me where Ive been

A             B                    E       A     
Those silver ribbons will take me there

A                        B   A
There......... and back again

A         B  A         B               F#
One more time....back again......
