[D] [A] [D]
Ridin' on the City of New Orleans
[Bm] [G] [D]
Illinois Central Monday mornin' rail
[D] [A] [D]
There's 15 cars, and 15 restless riders
[Bm] [A] [D]
3 conductors and 25 sacks of mail
[Bm] [F#m]
All along a southbound odyssey, and the train pulls out of Kankakee
[A] [E]
And rolls along past the houses, farms and fields
[Bm] [F#m]
Passin' towns that have no name, and freightyards full of old grey men
[A] [A7] [D]
The graveyards of the rusted automobiles
[Chorus]
[G] [A7] [D]
Singin' good mornin' America, how are you?
[Bm] [G] [D] [A7]
Sayin' don't you know me?, I'm your native son
[D] [A] [Bm] [Bm7] [E7]
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
[C] [G] [A] [D]
I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done.
[Verse]
[D] [A] [D]
I was playin' cards with the old men in the club car.
[Bm] [G] [D]
Penny a point, ain't no one keepin' score
[D] [A] [D]
Pass the paper bag that holds that bottle.
[Bm] [A] [D]
I can hear the wheels rumblin' thru the floor.
[Bm] [F#m]
And the sons of Pullman Porters, and the sons of engineers
[A] [E]
Ride their father's magic carpet made of steel
[Bm] [F#m]
And their days are full of restless, and their dreams are full of mem'ries
[A] [A7] [D]
And the echos of the freight train whistle's clear
[Chorus]
[G] [A7] [D]
Singin' good mornin' America, how are you?
[Bm] [G] [D] [A7]
Sayin' don't you know me?, I'm your native son
[D] [A] [Bm] [Bm7] [E7]
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
[C] [G] [A] [D]
I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done.
[Bridge]
[D] [A] [D]
And it's twilight on the City of New Orleans.
[Bm] [G] [D]
Talk about your pocket full of friends
[D] [A] [D]
Half way home, and we'll be there by mornin'
[Bm] [A] [D]
With no tomorrow waiting 'round the bend
[Chorus]
[G] [A7] [D]
Singin' good night' America, how are you?
[Bm] [G] [D] [A7]
Sayin' don't you know me?, I'm your native son
[D] [A] [Bm] [Bm7] [E7]
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
[C] [G] [A] [D]
I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done.
[G] [A7] [D]
Singin' good mornin' America, how are you?
[Bm] [G] [D] [A7]
Sayin' don't you know me?, I'm your native son
[D] [A] [Bm] [Bm7] [E7]
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
[C] [G] [A] [D]
I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done.
