C I was riding number 9, F C heading south from Carolina. G C I heard that lo-onesome whistle blow. Got in trouble, had to roam, F C left my girl, left my home. G C I heard that lo-onesome whistle blow. F Just a kid, acting smart, C I went and broke my baby's heart. D G I guess I was too young to know. C They took me off that Georgia Main F C and locked me to a ball and chain. G C I heard that lo-onesome whistle blow. All I do is sit and cry as the evening train goes by. I heard that lonesome whistle blow. I'll be locked here in this cell till my body's just a shell and my head turns whiter than snow. I'll never see that girl of mine 'cos I'm in Georgia doing time. I heard that lonesome whistle blow. I'll be locked here in this cell till my body's just a shell and my head turns whiter than snow. I'll never see that girl of mine 'cos I'm in Georgia doing time. I heard that lonesome whistle blow. | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsC D F G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
