D G From the great Atlantic Ocean to the wide Pacific shore A D She climbs the flowery mountains over the hills and by the shores D G She's mighty tall and handsome she's known quite well by all A D She's a regular combination on the Wabash Cannonball Chorus: D G Listen to the jingle the rumble and the roar A D As she glides along the woodlands over the hills and by the shores D G The mighty rush of the engine hears those lonesome hobos call A D Travelin through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball Well she came down from Birmingham one cold December day As she pulled into the station you could hear all the people say She's from Tennessee she's long and she's tall She came down from Birmingham on the Wabash Cannonball Chorus Here's to daddy Claxton may his name forever stand And always be remembered in the courts throughout the land His earthly race is over and the curtains round him fall We'll carry him home to Dixie on the Wabash Cannonball Chorus | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA D G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
