[E]
He looked down into her brown eyes
To [B] say a prayer for me
Threw [N] arms around him and said God [E] will keep us free
They could hear the writers coming
He [A] said this is my last fight
If they [E] take me back to Texas, [G] they won't take me back [E] alive
There were seven Spanish angels at the altar [B] of the sun
They were praying for the lovers in the valley of [E] the gods
And when the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from [A] the throng
Seven [E] Spanish angels [B] took another [E] angel home
She reached down and picked the gun up that was smoking [B] in his hand
She cried father, please forgive me, but I can't make it [E] without my man
And though she knew the gun was empty
She knew she [A] could not win
But her final [E] prayers were answered [B] when the rifles [E] fired again
There were seven Spanish angels at the [B] altar of the sun
They were praying for the lovers in the valley of [E] the gods
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from [A] the throng
And seven [E] Spanish angels [B] took [E] another angel home
There [C] [E] [F]
were seven Spanish angels at the [Dm] altar [C] of the sun
They were praying for the lovers in the valley [F] of the gods
And when the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the [A#] throng
And seven [F] Spanish angels [C] took another [D] angel [F] home
Thank you.
[A#] Thank [C#] you very [D] much.
Riding on the city of New Orleans, [Bm] Illinois Central
[G] Monday [D] morning rail
[A] [D] Eight [A] cars and fifteen [D] restless riders
Three [Bm] conductors and [A] twenty-five [D] sacks of oil
[Bm] All along the southbound city [F#m] the train pulls out from Canthakere
[A] And rolls along past houses, [E] farms and fields
[Bm] Passing trains that have no names and [F#m] graveyards filled with old black men
And [B] the [A] graveyards of the [Em] rusted [D] automobile
[Am] Good [G] morning, [A]
[D] [Bm] don't you know [G] me?
I'm your [D] native son
[A] The [D] train they call [A] the city [Bm] of New [A] Orleans
[E] And I'll [C] be gone [G] five [A] hundred miles when the day [D] is done
I climb on the [A] city of New Orleans
[D]
[Bm] Change a car [G] in Memphis, [D] Tennessee
Halfway home [A] we'll be there by [D] morning
Through the [Bm] Mississippi [A] darkness [D] rolling down to the sea
But [Bm] the towns and the people seem to [F#m] just fade into a bad dream
And [A] the steel rail still ain't heard [E] the news
[Bm] Conductors sing your song together
[F#m] Passengers will please refrain
[A]
This train has got to disappear [D] and railroad low
[G] Good morning, [A] America
[D]
[Bm] Don't you know [G] me?
I'm your [D] native son
[A] The [D] train they call [A] the city [Bm] of New Orleans
[E] And [C] I'll be gone five [A] hundred miles [G] when the day [D] is done
And I'll [C] be gone [G] five [A] hundred miles when the day [D] is done
[G] And I'll [C] be gone [Bm] five [A] hundred miles when the day is
Done
[D] [Dm]
