Intro
D for 2 bars
D A D
Riding on the City of New Orleans
Bm G D
Illinois Central Monday morning rail
D A D
Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
Bm A D
Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail
Bm F#m
All along the south bound odyssey, the train pulls out of Kenkakee
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 rusted automobiles???Chorus
[Chorus]
G A7 D
Good morning America, how are you? (night at 3rd chorus)
Bm G D A7 A9
Say, 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
F G A A9 D
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
D A D
Dealing card games with the old men in the club car
Bm G D
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 rumbling 'neath the floor
Bm F#m
And the sons of Pullman porters and the sons of engineers
A E
Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel
Bm F#m
Mothers with their babes asleep rocking to the gentle beat
A A7 D
And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel???Chorus
D A D
Nightime on the City of New Orleans
Bm G D
Changing cars in Memphis Tennessee
D A D
Half way 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
