GVerse 1
G D G Riding on the City of New Orleans Em C G Illinois Central Monday morning rail D G Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders Em D G Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail Em Bm On the south bound odyssey, the train pulls out of Kenkakee D A Rolls along past houses farms and fields Em Bm Passing trains that have no name, freight yards of old black men D C G And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles
Chorus
C D G Good morning America, how are you? Em C G D Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son G D Em I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans F C D G I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
Verse 2
D G Playing cards with the old men in the club car Em C G Penny a point, ain't no one keeping score D G Pass the paper bag, but hold the bottle Em D G And feel the wheels rumbling beneath the floor Em Bm And the sons of Pullman porters, and the sons of engineers D A Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel Em Bm Mother with their babes asleep, rocking to the gentle beat D C G The rhythm of the rails is all they feel
Chorus
C D G Good morning America, how are you? Em C G D Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son G D Em I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans F C D G I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
Verse 3
D G Night time on the City of New Orleans Em C G Changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee D G Half way home and we'll be there by morning Em D G Through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea Em Bm And all the towns and people seem to fade into a bad dream D A The steel rail still ain't heard the news Em Bm The conductor sings his songs again, the passengers will please refrain D C G This train got the disappearing railroad blues
Chorus
C D G Good night America, how are you? Em C G D Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son G D Em I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans F C D G I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done F C D G I'll be gone a million miles when the race is run F C G I'll be gone_____
