Losin My Blues Tonight

G                                C
Oh, you've done me wrong, but it won't be long,
        G                D
'Til my blues are out of sight.
         G         G7       C
For that big green engine's ready to go,
        G      D      G
Rollin' out of town tonight.

G                          C
See the steam and hear the whistle scream,
          G                   D
And we're off on the northern line.
       G      G7           C
Flyin' thirty-eight, never known to be late,
         G        D       G
Rock and rollin' along on time.

    G                             C
Oh, sling that coal and hear that engine roll,
         G               D
Keep the signals clear tonight.
       G        G7             C
Women, wine and song, I've had you to long,
      G       D       G
Gonna lose my blues tonight.

     G                          C
I've been in town and I've been foolin' around,
         G                  D
And I've spent some time in jail.
      G      G7               C
Gonna start again, don't know where or when,
      G         D           G
But tonight I'm changing my trail.

     G               C
It's good to see the bushland free,
           G                 D
'neath the moon and stars so bright.
         G         G7      C
And that old green rattler seems to know,
         G         D     G
That I'm losin' my blues tonight.

    G                             C
Oh, sling that coal and hear that engine roll,
         G               D
Keep the signals clear tonight.
       G        G7         C
Women, wine and song, I've had you to long,
      G       D       G
Gonna lose my blues tonight.

Let the smoke clouds fly, I'm sayin' goodbye,
      G       D       G
Gonna lose my blues tonight.
                  D       G
I'm gonna lose my blues tonight.
