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
On the Atch - i - son, To - pe - ka and the San - ta Fe.
All a - board, she's on her way.
[Verse 2]
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.
[Bridge]
A7        D               D6                F#m           Bm
Here she comes -- whoo - whoo  oo-whoo  oo- whoo - whoo - whoo.
     A      Cdim      Bm7-5 E7   A
Hey, Jim, ya bet - ter get  the rig!
A7    D      D6      F#m            Bm
Oo - whoo   whoo oo- whoo - whoo - whoo
      D             Cdim                    Bm7-5     E7
She's got a list of pas - sen - gers that's might - y big.
[Verse 3]
E7          A    D9   A    D9   A     E7   A
And they'll all want lifts to Brown's Ho - tel,
 Cdim   A       D9        A         Cdim      A   E7  A
'Cause lots of them been trav - el - in' for quite a spell,
E7       A   D9   A    D9    F#7         Cdim
All the way from Phil - a - delph - eye - aye
       A          A9       D9     Cdim      E7      A
On the Atch - i - son, To - pe - ka and the San - ta Fe.
[Verse 4]
E7      A   D9   A  D9   A   E7   A
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
        A          A9       D9     Cdim      E7      A
On the Atch - i - son, To - pe - ka and the San - ta Fe.
[Bridge 2]
A7        D             DM7               F#m         Bm
What a thrill with the wheels a - singin' "west - ward ho!"
 D       Cdim   E7  Bm7-5   D
From the day I heard them start,
  D                   DM7        F#m           Bm
'Cross the Kan - sas plains from New Mex - i - co --
   D              Cdim               Bm7-5    E7
I guess I've got a lit - tle gyp - sy in my heart.
[Verse 6]
E7        A   D9  A   D9   A    E7    A
When I'm old and grey and set - tled down,
Cdim  A        D9      A      Cdim       A   E7   A
 If I ev - er get a chance to sneak a - way from town,
E7         A    D9  A    D9    F#7      Cdim
Then I'll spend my bus - man's hol - i - day
        A          A9       D9     Cdim      E7      A
On the Atch - i - son, To - pe - ka and the San - ta Fe.
