C/G            E                Am    Am/G  F/C       
The whistle is blowing, and the train is  going 

C/G                                      G          C 
Just what's gonna happen next, well, I'm not one to say 

C/G              E                    Am     Am/G   F/C 
I'm sitting here yearning while those wheels keep turning 

C/G              G                     C 
"I'll be gone by tonight," she told me today 

C/G                  E                Am    Am/G         F/C            
And next door to the cornstalk by the side of this sheet rock 

C/G                 G                         C 
I will wait for the morning like a dog in the moon 

F/C        C 
Blow, blow on 
F/C        C 
Blow, blow on 

C/G               E               Am      Am/G       F/C 
Oh the minutes go slow now, and I hope it don't snow now 

C/G                   G                             C 
'Cause it's quiet and still and that train's out of sight 

C/G                  E        Am   Am/G   F/C 
All we need is a fat storm to blow by the platform 

C/G              G                          C 
Oh dear me, that woman, that woman's always right 

F/C        C 
Blow, blow on 
F/C        C 
Blow, blow on 

(I repeat chords:  C/G  E  Am  Am/G  F/C  C/G  G  C ) 

F/C        C 
Blow, blow on 
F/C        C 
Blow, blow on 

C/G            E                Am    Am/G   F/C 
The whistle is blowing, and the train is   going 

C/G                                      G              C 
Just what's gonna happen next, well, I'm not the one to say
