City Of New Orleans Tab uke di Arlo Guthrie (Accordi Baritono)

C             G           C
1. Riding on the city of New Orleans
2. Dealin' card games with the old men in the club car
3. Nighttime on the city of New Orleans

    Am                F              C
1. Illinois Central, Monday morning rail
2. Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score
3. Changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee

    C                G                C
1. Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
2. Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
3. Half way home, we'll be there by morning

          Am             G7                   C
1. Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail
2. Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor
3. Through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea

    Am                       
1. All along the southbound odyssey
2. And the sons of Pullman Porters
3. But all the towns and people seem

        Em
1. The train pulled out at Kankakee
2. And the sons of engineers
3. To fade into a bad dream

    G                                      D
1. And rolls along past houses, farms and fields
2. Ride their father's magic carpet made of steel
3. And the steel rails still ain't heard the news

    Am
1. Passin' trains that have no names
2. Mothers with their babes asleep
3. The conductor sings his songs again

        Em
1. And freight yards full of old black men
2. Are rockin' to the gentle beat
3. The passengers will please refrain

    G                         G7           C     C7
1. And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles
2. And the rhythm of the rail is all they feel
3. This train has got the disappearing railroad blues


 F                    G            C
Good morning [night] America, how are you

     Am                 F               C
Say don't you know me, I'm your native son

 G7      C                   G           Am   Am7   D7
I'm the train they call the city of New Orleans

             Bb        F       G                     C
And I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
