[Intro]
E    B7    E


[Chorus]
   E                            A              E
We rode on the Reading when the Reading rode again
                                      F#7              B7
We look back through the years to the days of way back when
   E                                A                      Am
We rode the mighty rails across the fields and 'round the bend
   E                            B7             E
We rode on the Reading when the Reading rode again


[Verse 1]
     E                                A               E
They tell me that the age of steam is dead and gone away
                                      F#7                  B7
They say I'm living in the past but I don't hear what they say
    E                                          A                Am
The chug-chug-chug and the toot-toot-toot seem like an old, old friend
   E                            B7             E
We rode on the Reading when the Reading rode again


[Bridge 1]
       C#m
With a chug-chug-chug and a toot-toot-toot
      A                 E
We'll head from Reading town
      C#m
We'll ride the rails to Pottsville
    F#7               B7
And then we'll turn around


[Verse 2]
         E                                      A                 E
From the coal mines and the factories, from the mountains to the sea
                                  F#7       B7
The Reading lines extended in the 19th century
      E                               A              Am
We'll not forget the stories of steel rails and iron men
   E                            B7             E
We rode on the Reading when the Reading rode again


[Bridge 2]
    C#m
The cars and the cabooses
    A                E
Are with us still today
   C#m
So stoke that locomotive
    F#7          B7
And listen as we say


[Chorus]
   E                            A              E
We rode on the Reading when the Reading rode again
                                      F#7              B7
We look back through the years to the days of way back when
   E                                A                      Am
We rode the mighty rails across the fields and 'round the bend
   E                            B7             E
We rode on the Reading when the Reading rode again


[Interlude]
E    A   E
     F#7 B7
E    A   Am
E    B7  E


[Verse 3]
        E                                 A           E
You can take your cars and buses, you can have your SST
                                       F#7           B7
The only way to fly, my friends, is on rails of history
        E                                    A                    Am
If they said, "You can go to the moon," I'll say, "I'll take the train"
         E                            B7             E
'cause I rode on the Reading when the Reading rode again


[Verse 4]
     E                                 A                 E
I've ridden on a horse's back and I've sailed the seven seas
                                 F#7          B7
And both, I must admit, provided wondrous memories
    E                                 A                Am
But gosh, I just got seasick and that horse gave me a pain
         E                            B7             E
'cause I rode on the Reading when the Reading rode again


[Bridge 3]
    C#m
The Outer Station, Franklin Street
        A                  E
And the shops at Sixth and Spring
    C#m
The clackety-clack and the "all aboard!"
   F#7           B7
It is of those I sing


[Chorus 2]
  E                            A              E
I rode on the Reading when the Reading rode again
                             F#7               B7
I got a cinder in my eye but this I'll say, my friend
    E                              A              Am
Her memory, I'll treasure, and her glory, I'll defend
         E                            B7             E
'cause I rode on the Reading when the Reading rode again
                                B7             E
We rode on the Reading when the Reading rode again
