Wabash Cannonball trad.
Native Key: G
[D]Out from the wide Pacific to the broad Atlantic [G]shore
She c[A]limbs the flowery mountains, over [A7]hills and by the[D] shore
[D]Although she's tall and handsome and she's known quite well by al[G]l
She's [A]a regular combination, the Wabash [D]Cannonball.
[D]Oh, listen to the jingle, the [D7]rumble and the [G]roar
As she [A]glides along the woodland, over [A7]hills and by the [D]shore
[D]She climbs the flowery mountains, hear the m[D7]erry hobo s[G]quall
As she [A]glides along the woodland, the [A7]Wabash Cannon[D]ball.
[D]Oh the Eastern states are dandy, so the Western people [G]say
Chi[A]cago, Rock Island, St. [A7]Louis by the [D]way
[D]To the lakes of Minnesota where the ri[D7]ppling waters f[G]all
No [A]chances to be taken on the [A7]Wabash Cannon[D]ball.
Chorus
[D]I have rode the I.C. Limited, also the Royal [G]Blue
Ac[A]ross the Eastern counties on [A7]Elkhorn Number [D]Two
[D]I have rode these highball trains from coast to [D7]coast that's [G]all
But I[A] have found no equal to the [A7]Wabash Cannon[D]ball.
Chorus
[D]Oh, here's old daddy Cleaton, let his name forever [G]be
[A]And long be remembered in the c[A7]ourts of Tenne[D]ssee
[D]For he is a good old rounder 'til the [D7]curtain round him [G]fall
[A]He'll be carried back to victory on the [A7]Wabash Cannon[D]ball.
