E
Freight yards jumping the trains are moving slow
C#m
The day seems dusty with a tender bit of cold
A
Can't wait to end this day
                            E
When will that whistle blow
E
One last glance at those lonseome rails of steel
     C#m
As I see my breath and I climb behind the wheel
A                                                 E
I miss her warm touch that's all I want to feel
F#m           A    B
Can't wait to see you
F#m       A       B
I need to be with you
F#m          A     B      A  E
Any momenent I can steal
F#m        A     B
Warm hands on my face
F#m             A  B           A
I long for your embrace
E                           F#m  E
That's all I want to feel
E
Her true  love's runs as steady as the rail
        C#m
And her heart is strong but still  gentle and frail
A
She always waits for me
                        E
Her love will never fail
E
The evening breeze puts a chill upon my skin
     C#m
As I turn for home

The sky begins to dim
A
Just one more  more quarter mile
                              E
Till I can hold her again
F#m           A    B
Can't wait to see you
F#m       A       B
I need to be with you
F#m          A     B      A  E
Any momenent I can steal
F#m        A     B
Warm hands on my face
F#m             A  B
I long for your embrace
F#m         A         B     A   E
Anything to make this real
F#m            A    B    F#m          A      B      A  E
One touch from your hand would be all I can stand
E                           F#m   E
That's all I want to feel

F#m           A    B
Can't wait to see you
F#m       A       B
I need to be with you
F#m          A     B      A  E
Any momenent I can steal
F#m        A     B
Warm hands on my face
F#m             A  B
I long for your embrace
F#m         A         B     A   E
Anything to make this real
F#m            A    B    F#m          A      B      A  E
One touch from your hand would be all I can stand
E                           F#m   E
That's all I want to feel
