Intro:

            Dm7     Dm7/G

            verse one:

            Dm7
            I took the cannon-ball down to the ocean,

            across the desert from sea to shining sea.

            I rode a ladder that climbs across the nation,

            fifty million feet of earth between the buried and me,

            Chorus:

            C/G       Fsus2            Em7     Fmaj7         C/G
            "How   do   you        do?"          She said "Hey,
                 Fsus2                  Em7    Fmaj7
            how    do    you       do?"

            verse 2:

            Dm7
            She buys a ticket cause it's cold where she comes from,

            She climbs aboard because she scared of getting older in the snow.

            Love is a ghost train rumbling through the darkness.

            Hold on to me, darling.  I've got nowhere else to go.

            Chorus:

            C/G        Fsus2                  Em7           C/G
            "How     do         you         do?"   She said 
                 Fsus2                      Em7      Fmaj7 
            how   do      you              do?"     Hey  E  A E A  yeah

            organ solo:
            (play 4 times)                                      
            Fmaj7           Fmaj7/G         Am         Am

            Dm7     Dm7/G

            verse 3:

            Dm7
            I took the cannon-ball down to the ocean,

            watched the diesel disappear beneath the tumbling waves.

            Love is a ghost train howling on the radio.

            "Remember everything," she said, "when only memory remains."


             C/G        Fsus2            Em7               C/G
            "How     do     you       do?"         She said, "Hey,
               Fsus2           Em7     Fmaj7
            how   do   you   do?"     
            C/G                     Fmaj7               Em7      Fmaj7
            "Hey,    how    do      you              do?"    
                      C/G            Fmaj7                 Em7     Fmaj7
            She said "Hey,     how do you              do?"
