Ridin' on the City of New Orleans
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Illinois Central Monday mornin' rail
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
There's 15 cars, and 15 restless riders
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
3 conductors and 25 sacks of mail
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
All along a southbound odyssey, and the train pulls out of Kankakee
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And rolls along past the houses, farms and fields
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Passin' towns that have no name, and freightyards full of old grey men
ch]A[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
The graveyards of the rusted automobiles
ch]G[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Singin' good mornin' America, how are you?
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
Sayin' don't you know me?, I'm your native son
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]Bm7[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done.

ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I was playin' cards with the old men in the club car.
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Penny a point, ain't no one keepin' score
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Pass the paper bag that holds that bottle.
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I can hear the wheels rumblin' thru the floor.
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
And the sons of Pullman Porters, and the sons of engineers
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Ride their father's magic carpet made of steel
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
And their days are full of restless, and their dreams are full of mem'ries
ch]A[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And the echos of the freight train whistle's clear
ch]G[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Singin' good mornin' America, how are you?
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
Sayin' don't you know me?, I'm your native son
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]Bm7[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans

ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And it's twilight on the City of New Orleans.
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Talk about your pocket full of friends
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Half way home, and we'll be there by mornin'
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
With no tomorrow waiting 'round the bend
ch]G[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Singin' good night' America, how are you?
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
Sayin' don't you know me?, I'm your native son
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]Bm7[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
