G7   C

[Verse 1]
   C                   F
My ears do ring and my heart does sing
       C                   G7
When a steam train whistle blows
    C             F
And anywhere that train is bound
     G7                C
It's there I too would go
  C               F
I had a dream the other night
     C              G7
Interrupted by this sound
   C                    F
It was the whistle of a southbound freight
        G7                 C
Rolling through my old hometown
  C                     F
I pinched myself, yeah, still alive
    C              G7
And hearing what I heard
      C                F
There was one toot and then another
    G7               C
And then, by gosh, a third
     C                 F
They echoed through my mind
            C             G7
Just like a childhood memory
    C                 F
The dreamy call of an iron horse
    G7              C
Was reaching out to me

[Chorus 1]
F
I know I'm dreaming
    C               G7
But could it really be?
C          F
It started seeming
     C         G7        C
That train was there for me

[Verse 2]
     C                           F
That choo-choo chugged through a foggy mist
    C                     G7
And stopped right where I stood
    C               F
I'd hop inside that locomotive
G7        C
If I only could
    C               F
But this I knew was nothing more
       C              G7
Than a wishful little dream
     C                  F
That toot and choo-choo couldn't really
G7             C
Be what it had seemed
    C              F
But then, a dapper man walked up
    C                 G7
And tipped his hat to me
      C            F
Well, in my sleepy state, I wondered
G7                 C
Who this man could be
   C               F
He said he came to give my dream
  C              G7
A special nice reward
    C             F
And with a smile upon his face
   G7              C
He bellowed, "All aboard!"

[Chorus 2]
F
Was this for real
   C           G7
Or just a fantasy?
 C           F
"Wow, what a deal!"
  G7               C
I shouted out with glee

[Verse 3]
  C                  F
I climbed inside the cabin
       C               G7
Took a look at all the stuff
    C                F
And then I felt that choo-choo train
  G7              C
Begin to huff and puff
      C              F
Well, in my dream, a red bandana
C                 G7
Fluttered from my neck
    C                       F
And over my shoulder, there was a cord
      G7                 C
And I figured, "What the heck?"
  C                   F
I wrapped my fingers 'round that cord
    C                G7
And slowly pulled it down
    C           F
And as I did, I heard that
          G7           C
Sweet and old familiar sound
     C             F
With that, the locomotive started
C                 G7
Chugging down the rails
  C               F
I gave that cord another tug
  G7              C
I listened to the wail

[Chorus 3]
F
I made it whistle
     C          G7
Yes, I'm an engineer
C         F
Give it a listen
    C       G7       C
And tell me what you hear

[Verse 4]
    C             F
The old conductor looked at me
    C                   G7
And tipped his hat once more
   C              F
He told me it was time to leave
       G7            C
And he vanished in a roar
C                  F
Yes, dreams, alas, must always end
    C              G7
For every girl and boy
      C               F
I was rustled from my slumber
     G7               C
By a muffled rumbling noise
  C                    F
I wiped the sleep dust from my eyes
    C                G7
And listened closely to
    C                  F
The clear refrain of a distant train
      G7                 C
And a plaintive "woo-woo-woo!"
        C               F
There's just one thing about that sound
     C                  G7
That made me think that day
    C                F
The closest railroad tracks to me
    G7          C
Are many miles away

[Chorus 4]
F
I got to fearing
     C                G7
That this was still a dream
C          F
What I was hearing
    G7                C
Was not what it might seem

[Verse 5]
    C              F
But soon, I heard another whistle
G7             C
Hooting in the night
  C                     F
I went to my window and looked outside
   G7             C
To see a wondrous sight
   C               F
Up in the dark but moonlit sky
  C                G7
Beneath a thousand stars
  C             F
A big black locomotive pulled
  G7               C
A hundred railroad cars
C                    F
White puffs of smoke rose from the stack
    C             G7
And I can faintly see
     C             F
That old conductor looking down
       G7                C
And he tipped his hat to me
     C             F
When in a wink, he vanished
     C              G7
In a trail of shiny steam
  C                  F
I rubbed my eyes and realized
     G7             C
That this was not a dream

[Chorus 5]
F
I made it whistle
     C          G7
Yes, I'm an engineer
C         F
Give it a listen
    C       G7       C
And tell me what you hear
