[Verse]
C G C
Riding on the City of New Orleans
Am F C
Illinois Central, Monday morning rail
C G C
There's fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
Am G C
Three conductors and twenty five sacks of mail
Am Em
All along the south bound odyssey, the train pulls in from Kankikee
G D
Rolls along past houses, farms and fields
Am
Passing towns that have no names
Em
And freight yards full of old black men
G G7 C
And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles
[Chorus]
F G C
Good morning America, how are you?
Am F C
I said don't you know me, I’m your native son
G C G Am
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
Eb F G G7 C
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
[Verse]
C G C
Dealing cards with the old men in the club car
Am F C
A penny a point, there ain't no one keeping score
C G C
Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
Am G C
I can feel the wheels a-grumbling 'neath the floor
Am
And the sons of Pullman porters
Em
And the sons of engineers
G D
Ride their fathers magic carpet made of steel
Am
And the mothers with their babes asleep
Em
Go rocking to the gentle beat
G G7 C
And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel
[Chorus]
F G C
Good morning America, how are you?
Am F C
I said don't you know me, I’m your native son

C G C
Night time on the City of New Orleans
Am F C
We're changing cars for Memphis, Tennessee
C G C
We're halfway home and we'll be there by morning
Am G C
Through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea
Am
And all the towns and people seem
Em
To fade into a bad dream
G D
And the steel rail still ain't heard the news
Am
The conductor sings his songs again
Em
The passengers will please refrain
G G7 C
This train's got the disappearing railroad blues
[Chorus]
F G C
Good Night America, how are you
Am F C
I said don't you know me, I’m your native son
