TITLE: Chattanooga Choo-Choo
Lyrics and Chords


Pardon me boy, is that the Chattanooga Choo-Choo
Yes, yes, track twenty-nine, boy you can give me a shine
Can you afford to board the Chattanooga Choo-Choo
I got my fare, and just a trifle to spare

/ D - - G D - - - / E7 - A7 - D - - G / D - G7 - D - - - /
   / E7 - A7 - D - - - /

You leave the Pennsylvania Station 'bout a quarter to four
Read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore
Dinner in the diner, nothing could be finer
Than to have your ham and eggs in Carolina

/ G D7 G D7 / G D7 G - / C A7 G E7 / A7 - - A7D7 / 

When you hear the whistle blowing eight to the bar
Then you know that Tennessee is not very far
Shovel all your coal in, gotta keep a-rollin'
Whoo whoo, Chattanooga, there you are

/ " / " / " / Am7 D7 Am7 G /

There's gonna be a certain party at the station
Satin and lace, I used to call funny-face
She's gonna cry until I tell her that I'll never roam
So, Chattanooga Choo-Choo, won't you choo-choo me home

/ C - - F C - - - / D7 - G7 - C - - F / C - C7 - F - Fm - /
   / C Am7 F G C - - - /

Chattanooga, Chattanooga, get aboard
Chattanooga, Chattanooga, all aboard
Chattanooga, Chattanooga
Chattanooga Choo-Choo, won't you choo-choo me home
Chattanooga Choo-Choo

/ C - - - / / / C Am7 F G / C - C7 - /
