E7      A    D9   A     D9   A   E7   A
Do you hear that whis - tle down the line?
Cdim  A          D9      A        Cdim        A    E7    A
 I   fig - ure that it's en - gine num - ber for - ty - nine --
E7        A    D9  A   D9      F#7       Cdim
She's the on - ly one that'll sound that way
        A          A9       D9     Cdim      E7      A

All a - board, she's on her way.

E7      A    D9   A     D9   A    E7   A
See the old smoke ri - sin' round the bend?
Cdim  A        D9       A         Cdim       A   E7  A
 I  reck - on that she knows she's gon - na meet a friend.
E7         A     D9    A     D9      F#7     Cdim
Folks a - round these parts kept the time of day
          A         A9        D9      Cdim     E7      A
From the Atch - i - son, To - pe - ka and the San - ta Fe.

Back in O - hi - o where I come from,
Cdim  A     D9       A        Cdim        A    E7    A
I've done a lot of dream - in' and I've trav - ell'd some,
E7     A    D9   A     D9  F#7     Cdim
But I nev - er thought I'd see the day
        A       A9     D9 Cdim     E7      A
When I ev - er took a ride on the San - ta Fe.
 
 
[Verse 5]
E7       A   D9    A   D9  A    E7   A
I would lean a - cross my win - dow sill
Cdim  A       D9        A        Cdim      A    E7   A
And hear the whis - tle ech - o - in' a - cross the hill,
E7        A     D9   A    D9        F#7     Cdim
Then I'd watch the lights till they fade a - way

On the Atch - i - son, To - pe - ka and the San - ta Fe.

'Cross the Kan - sas plains from New Mex - i - co --
   D              Cdim               Bm7-5    E7

Then I'll spend my bus - man's hol - i - day

What a lovely trip
I'm feeling so fresh and alive
And I'm so glad to arrive
It's all so grand

It's easy to see you don't need a palace
To feel like Alice in Wonderland
Back in Ohio where I come from
I've done a lot of dreamin' and I've travelled some

But I never thought I'd see the day
When I ever took a ride on the Santa Fe
(Wanna take a ride on the Santa Fe)
I would lean across my window sill

And hear the whistle echoin' across the hill
Then I'd watch the lights till they fade away
On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe
What a thrill (what a great big wonderful thrill)

With the wheels a-singin' "westward ho"
Right from the day I heard them start
'Cross the Kansas plains from New Mexico
I guess I've got a little gypsy in my heart

When I'm old and grey and settled down
If I ever get a chance to sneak away from town
Then I'll spend my busman's holiday
On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe

All aboard! (we came across the country lickety-split)
(Rollin' ninety miles an hour)
I can't believe I'm here at last
Woo-oo-ooo!

(When you go travellin', it's best for you
To take the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe!)
I can't believe that anything could go so fast
Then you pull that throttle, whistle blows

A-huffin' and a-puffin' and away she goes
All aboard for California, hey!
On the Atchison (on the Atchison)
On the Atchison, Topeka (on the Atchison, Topeka)

On the Atchison, Topeka (on the Atchison, Topeka)
On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe!
