Traditional - Wabash Cannonball Chords

   G                                                 C
1. From the great Atlantic Ocean to the wide Pacific shore,
            D                                                G
To the green old flow'ring mountains, to the ice?bound Labrador
G                                                     C
She's long and tall and handsome and known quite well to all.
D                                         G
She's the modern combination called the Wabash Cannonball.

        G                                           C
        So listen to the jingle, the rumble and the roar
                   D                                                        G
        as she glides along the woodlands, through the hills and by the shore.
        G                                                            C
        Hear the mighty rush of the engine, and the lonesome hoboes squall,
                  D                                               G
        While riding through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball.

2. She came in from Birmingham on a cold and frosty day.
        D                                                  G
As she rolled into the station, you could hear the people say,
 G                                                            C
"There's a gal out there form Tennessee, she's long, boy, and tall.
D                                                    G
She's the modern combination called the Wabash Cannonball."

        G                                           C
        So listen to the jingle, the rumble and the roar
                   D                                                        G
        as she glides along the woodlands, through the hills and by the shore.
        G                                                            C
        Hear the mighty rush of the engine, and the lonesome hoboes squall,
                  D                                         G
        While riding through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball.

3. Now the Eastern states are dandy, so the all the people say,
     D                                          G
From New York to Saint Louis and Chicago by the way,
         G                                             C
From the lakes of Minnehaha where the laughing waters fall,
    D                                             G
No change in standard gauging on the Wabash Cannonball.

        Chorus
        G                                           C
        So listen to the jingle, the jumble and the roar
                   D                                                        G
        as she glides along the woodlands, through the hills and by the shore.
        G                                                            C
        Hear the mighty rush of the engine, and the lonesome hoboes squall,
                  D                                         G
        While riding through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball.
