The Rails
Thrasher Shiver
Verse One:
D A
Hanging out at Miller's Trestle, listening for that distant whistle
G D A
Waiting there our ears pressed to the steel
D A
Two crazy kids with a one track mind, double-daring all the time
G D A
To see who'd stand the closest to the wheels
Bm G
Once the train had rolled on by, I'd walk the left you'd walk the right
Bm A G Asus A
Stretching out our arms pretending to ride
Chorus:
D A G Asus A
The rails, running forever side by side
D A G A
The rails, staying together like ties that bind, whoa
Bm A G
Like two old friends, there ain't no end in sight
D
The rails
Verse Two:
D A
You went east and I went west, that's the way life goes I guess
G D A
Before you know it time just rolls on by
D A
Through all the twists and turns of fate, a lot has changed but nothing breaks
G D A
Or even bends the strength of those old ties
Bm G
We're grown up now with kids and wives, we do our jobs we do what's right
Bm A G Asus A
Ain't it funny how we turned out just like
Chorus:
D A G Asus A
The rails, running forever side by side
D A G A
The rails, staying together like ties that bind, whoa
Bm A G
Like two old friends, there ain't no end in sight
F G B
I'm still on the left and you're still on the right
(Instrumental)
E B A B E B A B
Chorus:
E B A Bsus B
Whoa the rails, running forever side by side
E B A B
The rails, staying together like ties that bind, whoa
C#m B A
Like two old friends, there ain't no end in sight
(Repeat out)
E B A B
The rails (whoa, whoa)
E B A B
Whoa the rails (whoa, whoa)
