   G       
 I LEFT MY HOME IN NORFOLK VIRGINIA
                  C
 CALIFORNIA ON MY MIND
   D
 I BOARDED THAT GREYHOUND, 
                                     G
 RODE IN INTO RALIEGH ON ACROSS CAROLINE
 G
 STOPPED IN CHARLOTTE TO BY PASS ROCKHILL

 WE NEVER WAS A MINUTE LATE
         D
 WE WERE NINTY MILES OUT OF ATLANTA BY SUNDOWN
                        G
 ROLLIN' OUT OF GEORGIA STATE
    G
 WE HAD MOTOR TROUBLE THAT TURNED INTO A STRUGGLE
                   C
 HALFWAY ACROSS ALABAM
          D
 AND THAT BOW BROKE DOWN
                                         G
 AND LEFT US STRANDED IN DOWNTOWN BIRMINGHAM
 G
 RIGHT AWAY I BOUGHT A THROUGH TRAIN TICKET
                        C
 GOT ACROSS MISSISSIPPI CLEAN
           D
 AND I WAS ON THAT MIDNIGHT FLYER OUT OF BIRMINGHAM
                      G
 SMOKIN' INTO NEW ORLEANS
 G
 SOMEBODY HELP ME GET OUT OF LOUISIANA
                        C
 HELP ME GET TO HOUSTON TOWN

           D
 THERE ARE PEOPLE THERE WHO CARE A LITTLE 'BOUT ME
                            G
 AND WON'T PUT THE POOR BOY DOWN
 G
 GEORGIA BORN, THEY BOUGHT ME A SILK SUIT
                       C
 AND PUT LUGGAGE IN MY HAND
     D
 AND WOKE UP HIGH OVER ALBUQUERQUE
                          G
 ON A JET TO THE PROMISED LAND
 G
 WORKIN' ON A T-BONE ALA CARTEE
                           C
 FLYIN' OVER TO THE GOLDEN STATE
          D
 WHEN THE PILOT TOLD US IN THIRTEEN MINUTES
                                 G
 HE WOULD SET US AT THE TERMINAL GATE
 G
 SWING LOW CHARIOT, COME DOWN EASY
                      C
 TAXI TO THE TERMINAL DOOR
 D
 CUT YOUR ENGINES AND COOL YOUR WINGS
                               G
 AND LET ME MAKE IT TO THE TELEPHONE
 G
 LOS ANGELES, GIVE ME NORFLOK VIRGINIA
                      C
 TIDEWATER FOUR TEN O NINE
