[Verse 1]
[D]I[F][Dm][D][G][D]
[Dm]left my ho[D]me in Norfolk,
[Dm]Virginia[D]
Cali[Dm]for [D]nia on my [G]mind
[A]Straddled that Greyhound
Rode him in the Raleigh
[Am]And on across Caro[A]line[D]

[Verse 2]
We [D]had motor trouble it
turned into a struggle
Half way across [G]Alabam'
And that [A]'hound broke down
and left us all stranded
In downtown Birming[D]ham

[Verse 3]
[D]Right away, I brought me a
through train ticket
Ridin' cross Missis[Dm]sippi [D]clean[G]
I was [A]on that midnight flyer
out of Birmingham
Smokin' [Am]into New Or[D]leans

[Verse 4]
[D]Somebody help me get out of Louisiana
Just help me get to Houston [G]town
[A]There are people there who
care a little 'bout me
And they [Am]won't [A]let [Am]the poor [Dm]boy

[Verse 5]
[D]Sure as you're born,
they bought me a silk suit
Put a luggage in my [G]hands
And [A]I woke up high over Albuquer[Am]que
On a jet to the prom[G]ised [D]land

[Verse 6]
[D]Workin' on a t- bone steak a la carte
Flyin' [Dm]over [D]to the [Dm]Golden [G]State
And [A]the pilot told us in thirteen [Am]minutes
He would send us to the
termin[A]al [D]gate

[Verse 7]
[D]Ah, swing low, chariot, come down easy
Taxi to the terminal [G]zone
[A]Cut your engines and cool
your wing[Am]s
And let me make it to the tele[G]phone

[Verse 8]
[D]Los Angeles give me Norfolk,
Virginia
[Dm]Tidewater four- [D]ten- oh- [G]nine
Tell the [A]folks back home this is
the promised land calling
[Am]And the poor boy's on [D]the line

And the [A]pilot told us in thirteen minutes
He would send us to the terminal [D]gate

[Verse 10]
[D]Swing low, chariot, come [Dm]down easy
Taxi to the termin[D]al zone[G]
[Am]Cut [A]your engines and cool your wings
And [Am]let me make it to the [A]tele[D]phone

[Verse 11]
Los [D]Angeles give me Norfolk,
Virginia
