Вступление
"Old Man Waiting" - Charles J. Adams III
Track 1 of 18 on the album "Tracks" (2008)
[Intro]
F C
G7 C
[Verse 1]
C
Every day, you'll find him
G7 C
By this lonely track
C
Hoping for a passing train
G7 C
That's never coming back
F C
50 years ago, the last train
F C
Rumbled down this line
C
Still, he keeps a vigil
G7 C
Just sitting, killing time
[Verse 2]
C
With precious few tomorrows
G7 C
But so many yesterdays
C
The old man bears no sorrows
G7 C
In his weary wizened gaze
F C
His mind is set to wandering
F C
Through many years and miles
C
A lifetime rich with memories
G7 C
Of many tears and smiles
[Verse 3]
C
As the old man reminisces
G7 C
From a dark and distant veil
C
A locomotive hisses
G7 C
And a whistle faintly wails
F C
The phantom train came rolling in
F C
In a cloud of steam and smoke
C
The old man's failing eyes lit up
G7 C
But not a word he spoke
[Verse 4]
C
He listened as the locomotive
G7 C
Huffed and puffed in place
C
And then he drew his final breaths
G7 C
With a broad grin on his face
F C
The conductor smiled and said to him
F C
"You're coming home with me
C
It's a highball straight to heaven
G7 C
Next stop: eternity"
