Bm F#m All along the south bound odyssey, the train pulls out of Kankakee A E* Rolls along past houses, farms and fields Bm F#m Passing trains that have no name, freight yards full of old black men A A7 D And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles. [Chorus] G A D Good morning America, how are you? Bm G D Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son. A7 D A Bm E7 I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans C G A A7 D I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done. [Verse 2] D A D Dealing card games with the old men in the club car Bm G D A Penny a point, ain't no one keeping score D A D Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle Bm A D Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor Bm F#m And the sons of Pullman porters and the sons of engineers A E Ride their fathers' magic carpets made of steel Bm F#m Mothers with their babes asleep, rockin' to the gentle beat A A7 D And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel. [Chorus] G A D Good morning America, how are you? Bm G D Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son. A7 D A Bm E7 I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans C G A A7 D I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done. [Verse 3] D A D Night time on the City of New Orleans Bm G D A Changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee D A D Halfway home, we'll be there by morning Bm A D through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea. Bm F#m But all the towns and people seem to fade into a bad dream A E And the steel rail still ain't heard the news Bm F#m The conductor sings his songs again, the passengers will please refrain A A7 D This train got the disappearing railroad blues. [Chorus] G A D Good night America, how are you? Bm G D Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son. A7 D A Bm E7 I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans C G A A7 D I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done. * Try adding Esus4 E here to jazz it up a bit, if you like:) *** This version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fF1lqEQFVUo ** Alternates: Capo II D = E A = B Bm = C#m G = A F#m = G#m (Abm) C = D E = F# E7 = F#7 A7 = B7 Capo I D = F A = C Bm = Dm G = Bb F#m = Am C = Eb E = G A = C E7 = G7 A7 = C7 Capo VI D = C A = G Bm = Am G = F F#m = Em C = Bb E = D E7 = D7 A7 = G7 Open (These chords are not in the original key) D = A A = E Bm = F#m G = D F#m = C#m C = G E = B E7 = B7 A7 = E7 D = G A = D Bm = Em G = D F#m = Bm C = F E = A E7 = A7 A7 = D7 Set8
