Joe Mullins version, the chorus is slightly different each time, FYI

Verse

G                                 C               G
One day the train was passing, I caught it comin' by
                                               D
To look this old world over, under God's blue sky
       G                          C             G
My darlin' stood there weepin' as I was lookin' back
                               D7               G
I kissed my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track

Chorus

                     C                                G
Goodbye, so long, until I come back home you’ll be my dream
                                                         D
Goodbye, so long, there’s lots of places that I’ve never seen
        G                       C                G
I’ve always been a drifter, but I’ll be drifting back
                                D7              G
Where I left you cryin', In the smoke along the track

Verse

G                           C                 G
I like to keep on goin', it helps me when I'm blue
                                               D
I get the urge to travel, that's all I want to do
  G                                C              G
I know I just can't settle down because I like to roam
                                       D7           G
And when I hear that whistle blow I've got to move along

Chorus

Verse

G                          C             G
I know my baby loves me, I love my baby too
                                                D
But she don't understand me when I'm feelin' so blue
     G                               C            G
And when I hear that whistle blow I hurry home to pack
                               D7              G
And kiss my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track
