Narrative:

Landed on runway 27R first time at ord, single pilot. GA is near runway 27L, almost as far as you can go around airport. Taxi instructions were long, fast plus detailed - 'say again.' you're on 'a,' get on 'B,' follow (air carrier X) plus stay' on 'bravo' till A-17, turn at 'D'. Missed A-17, missed 'D,' stayed on 'B' till it crossed runway 32R plus I ended up at runway 27R. Told ground where I was. He was not pleased. 'Go to tower.' do a 180 degree. Recross runway 32R, back to ground. Got lecture on need for copilot and getting lost. Taxied to FBO. Recommendations: always land at dalwaukee! If in doubt - ask. A clearance to taxi is not always a clearance to cross runways.
