City Of New Orleans John Denver

Lyrics and guitar chords

  • Guitar chords Katarzyna Szostak
DRidin' on the CitAy of New OrleaDns
BmIllinois Central GMonday mornin'D rail
DThere's 15 cars, Aand 15 restless Driders
Bm3 conductors andA 25 sacks of maDil

BmAll along a southbound odyssey, F#mand the train pulls out of Kankakee
AAnd rolls along past the houses, farms and Efields
BmPassin' towns that have no name, F#mand freightyards full of old grey men
AThe graveyards of tA7he rusted automobilDes


[Refren]
GSingin' good mornin' AA7merica, how are yDou?
Sayin' Bmdon't you know me?,G I'm your nativeD son       A7  
I'm the Dtrain they call the ACity of New BmOrlBm7eansE7  
I'll beC gone 5G00 milAes when the day is donDe.


[Zwrotka]
DI was playin' cards Awith the old men in the club cDar.
BmPenny a point, aGin't no one keepin' scDore
DPass the paper bAag that holds that botDtle.
BmI can hear the wheels Arumblin' thru the Dfloor.

BmAnd the sons of Pullman Porters, F#mand the sons of engineers
ARide their father's magic carpet made of sEteel
BmAnd their days are full of restless, F#mand their dreams are full of mem'ries
AAnd the echos of the A7freight train whistle's Dclear


[Refren]
GSingin' good mornin' AA7merica, how are yDou?
Sayin' Bmdon't you know me?,G I'm your nativeD son       A7  
I'm the Dtrain they call the ACity of New BmOrlBm7eansE7  
I'll beC gone 5G00 milAes when the day is donDe.


[Bridge]
DAnd it's twilight on thAe City of New DOrleans.
BmTalk about your pGocket full of frienDds
DHalf way home, and we'All be there by mDornin'
BmWith no tomorrow Awaiting 'round the Dbend


[Refren]
GSingin' good night' AmA7erica, how are yoDu?
Sayin' Bmdon't you know me?,G I'm your nativeD son       A7  
I'm the Dtrain they call the ACity of New BmOrlBm7eansE7  
I'll beC gone 5G00 milAes when the day is donDe.

GSingin' good mornin' AA7merica, how are yDou?
Sayin' Bmdon't you know me?,G I'm your nativeD son       A7  
I'm the Dtrain they call the ACity of New BmOrlBm7eansE7  
I'll beC gone 5G00 milAes when the day is donDe.
