MANDOLIN ORANGE
Lonesome Whistle
CAPO IV
[Intro] (x2)
C Am C Am
G C F Am
[Verse 1]
C Am C Am
All eyes out on the railroad, all eyes out on the sea
G C F Am
All these means of travel, darling, mean nothing once your soul has been set free
C Am C Am
So hear that lonesome whistle blowing in the shadow of a sail
G C F Am
The winds are high and the tides are flowing, that high ball's rolling down the rail
[Interlude]
C Am C Am
G C F Am
[Verse 2]
C Am C Am
Little redbird in the corner, there's a blackbird at the door
G C F Am
And Lord I know if he should ever cross over the blood would hit the floor
C Am C Am
So hear that lonesome whistle blowing, hear that engine cough and whine
G C F Am
See those black sails meet horizons, that old blackbird knows it's time
[Interlude] (x2)
C Am C Am
G C F Am
[Verse 3]
C Am C Am
Harken, hear the angels humming, six white horses set to run
G C F Am
And my bones rattle 'tween their rumbling and the setting of the sun
