Intro
A for 2 bars
A E A
Riding on the City of New Orleans
F#m D A
Illinois Central Monday morning rail
A E A
Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
F#m E A
Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail
F#m C#m
All along the south bound odyssey, the train pulls out of Kenkakee
E B
Rolls along past houses farms and fields
F#m C#m
Passing trains that have no name, freight yards full of old black men
E E7 A
And the graveyards of rusted automobiles???Chorus
[Chorus]
D E7 A
Good morning America, how are you? (night at 3rd chorus)
F#m D A E7 E9
Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son
A E F#m F#m7 B7
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
C D E E9 A
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
A E A
Dealing card games with the old men in the club car
F#m D A
Penny a point ain't no one keeping score
A E A
Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
F#m E A
Feel the wheels rumbling 'neath the floor
F#m C#m
And the sons of Pullman porters and the sons of engineers
E B
Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel
F#m C#m
Mothers with their babes asleep rocking to the gentle beat
E E7 A
And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel???Chorus
A E A
Nightime on the City of New Orleans
F#m D A
Changing cars in Memphis Tennessee
A E A
Half way home we'll be there by morning
F#m E A
through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea
F#m C#m
But all the towns and people seem to fade into a bad dream
E B
And the steel rail still ain't heard the news
F#m C#m
The conductor sings his songs again, the passengers will please refrain
E E7 A
This train got the disappearing railroad blues???Chorus
