Chords:
Transpose:
Greenville Trestle High
D D7 G DI remember as a boy how in wonderment and joy,
D AIÂ’d watch the trains as they roll by
D D7 G DAnd the whistleÂ’s lonesome sound you could hear for miles around,
D A DAs they rolled across that Greenville Trestle high.
(Chorus)
G D D ABut the whistles donÂ’t sound like they used to. Lately not many trains go by.
D G DHard times across the land mean no work for a railroad man.
D A DAnd the Greenville Trestle now donÂ’t seem so high.
D D7 G DOn the riverbank IÂ’d stand with a canepole in my hand
D A and watch the freight trains up against the sky.
D D7 G D With the black smoke trailinÂ’ back as they moved along the tracks,
D A D that runs across that Greenville Trestle high
(Chorus)
D D7 G DWhen the lonesome whistles whine I get rambling on my mind
D A and I wish they still sounded that way.
D D7 G D As I turn and head for home, Lord sheÂ’d rumble, low , and moan
D A D toward the sunset at the break of day.
(Chorus)
