Throw in the Intro Riff (at bottom)

G             D
Its late and I cant sleep
Em                      C
Ive made promises that I cant keep
G             D
Cobble stones and broken bones
Em             A
Has a kingdom, but hes got no home
G                   D             Em
Last night is still ringing in my head
          C        G              D
Like that lonesome whistle in the rain


C          G              D         Em
Lord Im a fool for a lonesome train
C          G              D            C
Woah Im a fool for a lonesome traiiiin

Throw in Intro Riff

G                   D                Em
The lifetimes weve left behind were strangers
G           D   Em              A
Promises and lies both have their dangers
G                D
Now I just cant be wrong enough
Em               C
And I cant hide for long enough
F               C                D
So far away, but I still feel your pain


C          G              D         Em
Lord Im a fool for a lonesome train
C          G              D         Em
Lord Im a fool for a lonesome train
C          G              D         Em
I try to say goodbye, but I never got your name
C          G             D          C
Woah Im a fool for a lonesome train
