[VERSE 1]
The[G] lonesome oak tree held its fire into [D]November
He [Am]watched the last brown leaf
Hit[C] the ground and blow a [D]way
An e[G]vening gunshot lets him know the hunt is ov[D]er
A[Am] familiar cold moves in
Some where between[C] snow and ra[D]in
Just la[G]st spring you know his heart was[D] burning
B[Am]efore his Lynnville love hit the road to [C]chase her d[D]ream
No[G]w he thinks of her each night and in the morn[D]ing
H[Am]e laces his coffee cup with whiskey i[C]nstead of cr[D]eam
[CHORUS]
H[C]er story is she's changed her mind
She ju[G]st can't help herself
She wrote p[Am]lease don't meet me at the Lynnville train
Cause I'm [C]coming in with someone el[D]se
H[C]e's a quiet man, the neighbors say
But his p[G]ain won'[G/F]t go a way[Em]
So f[C]or better or worse he's goin[G]g down
To[D] meet the Lynnville tr[G]ain
[VERSE 2]
He[G] blew a tire on the road down to the [D]station
He[Am] jacked it up and thought out loud,
"[C] ;She never should have le[D]t me down."
Ju[G]st six months ago she vowed she was [D]leaving
Now she's [Am]coming home with a stranger
To s[C]ettle down in Lynnville [D]town
[CHORUS]
H[C]er story is she's changed her mind
She ju[G]st can't help herself
She wrote p[Am]lease don't meet me at the Lynnville train
Cause I'm [C]coming in with someone el[D]se
H[C]e's a quiet man, the neighbors say
But his p[G]ain won'[G/F]t go a way[Em]
So f[C]or better or worse he's goin[G]g down
To[D] meet the Lynnville tr[G]ain
[VERSE 3]
St[G]eel wheels scream, the whistle blows,
His heart is b[D]reaking
She[Am] steps onto the platform,
with her [C]new love by her s[D]ide
He[G] reaches in his coat, his hand is shaki[D]ng
The [Am]time has finally come. yeah, this [C]really is goodb[D]ye
ENDING CHORUS
H[C]is story is he's changed his mind,
He j[G]ust can't help himself
So he's g[Am]etting on board the Lynnville train
And mo[C]ving on to someplace el[D]se
A[C]s the train pulls out he watches them both
S[G]tanding in the [G/F]pouring ra[Em]in
H[C]e's headed for a new life do[Am]wn the line
[D]On the Lynnville [G]Train
Y[C]eah, for better or worse, [G]he's leaving town
[D]On the Lynnville [G]Train
