"All aboard in Montreal" I heard the con- ductor call
         D                    C
That old engine heaved a sigh
G             D               C                 G
Suitcases and shufflin' feet, found my way to a window seat
          D                     C
I love to watch the world go by

G                   D      C         G
Made friends with a family bound for Sault St. Marie
                      D                C
They said good-bye at Sudbury Junction
G                  D           C                       G
I guess I hated to see 'em go, thought about 'em as it started to snow
               D                 C
Time stops for nothin' or no one

     G           Bm            C    G           Bm           C
This train keeps rollin' along from here to the great beyond
G               Bm             Em              Am
Black smoke and pistons churn, steel rails and big wheels turn
           Bm    C       D       G D C
This train keeps rollin' along

G                  D             C              G
'Cross the endless prairie land, mighty baffalo used to stand
                 D                   C
The cree and the blackfoot lived and died
G               D                                              G
Are the Rockies nestled in the trees,  C   I fell in love with Lake Louise
                 D                 C
Smilin' with her sparklin' emerald eyes

     G           Bm            C    G           Bm           C

Soon we'll reach the sea and there I'll stand
Bb                                   D
With nothing but the blue between me and Japan

G              D               C                G
Now I'm at the end of the line out of track and out of time
          D               C
Contuctor makes his final round
G                      D            C                   G
But all the people and places past, they went by just a little too fast
                      D                  C
How I wish I could've slowed this engine down
