Tom: G Intro: Open strumming in G G Up the Hudson Valley across NY State C To Chicago then the plains D All so easy and dream like C G Crashing the salt flat day break G I hear "I'll take you home again Kathleen" C Said in fogwinds out there that blow D Across the rooftops of eerie old hangover G San Francisco D Now I'm transcontinental Am 3000 miles from my home C I'm on the California Zephyr G Watching America roll by Am Now I'm transcontinental D 3000 miles from my home C I'm on the California Zephyr G Watching America roll by G I've hit the end of the trail C Can't even drag my body I've been driven mad for three years D Too much fame keeps a body busy C G And a mind full of white port tears G Terrified by that sad song C Across rooftops mingled with the lachrymose cries D Of the Salvation Army meeting on the corner G Saying Satan is the cause of it all D Now I'm transcontinental Am 3000 miles from my home C I'm on the California Zephyr G Watching America roll by Am Now I'm transcontinental D 3000 miles from my home C I'm on the California Zephyr G Watching America roll by Am D C G Am D C G
