The [D] lonesome oak tree held its fire into No [A] vember
He [G] watched the last brown leaf
Hit the ground and blow a [A] way
An [D] evening gunshot lets him know the hunt is [A] over
A [G] familiar cold moves [D] in
Some [G] where between snow and [A] rain

Just last spring you know his heart was burning
Before his Lynnville love hit the road to chase her dream
Now he thinks of her each night and in the morning
He laces his coffee cup with whiskey instead of cream

CHORUS 1

[G] Her story is she's changed her mind
She [D] just can't help herself
She wrote [Em] please don't meet me at the [G] Lynnville train
Cause I'm coming in with [A] someone else
He's a [G] quiet man, the neighbors say
But his [D] pain won't go a [Bm] way
So for [G] better or worse he's [D] going down
[A] To meet the Lynnville [D] train

He blew a tire on the road to the station
He jacked it up and thought out loud,
"She never should have let me down."
Just six months ago she vowed she was leaving
Now she's coming home with a stranger
To settle down in Lynnville town

REPEAT CHORUS 1

Steel wheels scream, the whistle blows,
His heart is breaking
She steps onto the platform, her new love by her side
He reaches in his coat, his had is shaking
The time has finally come, this really is goodbye

CHORUS 2

His story is he's changed his mind,
He just can't help himself
So he's getting on board the Lynnville train
And moving on to someplace else
As the train pulls out he watches them both
Standing in the pouring rain
He's headed for a new life down the line
On the Lynnville Train

Repeat last 2 lines
