[Ab] I got to Kansas City [Bbm] on a Friday

For up to then I [Bbm] didn't have an idea
[Eb] Of what the modern world [Ab] was coming to
[Gm] I [Cm] counted twenty [Fm] gas [Bb] buggies [Cm] going by their [D] cells
[Gm] Almost [Gb] every [Eb] time I took a walk
Then [Ab] I put my ear [Bb] to [Eb] a bell telephone
[Bb] And a strange [Eb] woman started in to talk To you?
What [Db] name? [Bb] Yeah, [Ab] what?

[Eb] [Ab] They've gone [C] about as far as [Bbm] they can [F] go
[Bb] They went [Eb] and built a [Ab] skyscraper [Fm] seven stories [Eb] high
About [Bb] as high as a building [F] or to grow
[Eb] [Ab] [Eb] Everything's like a dream [Ab] in Kansas [Ebm] City
[Eb] [Ab] It's better [C] than a magic [F] lantern show
[Bbm] You can [Bb] turn [Eb] the radiator [Ab] on [C] whenever you [Fm] want some heat
[Bb] With every [Eb] kind of comfort [Ab] every [C] house [Fm] is all complete
You can [C] walk [Fm] to [C] primmies in the [Ab] rain and [Db] never [Cm] wet your [Bbm] feet

[Ebm]
[Ab] They've gone [C] about as far as [F] they can go

[Eb] For fifty cents you can see a [Db] dandy show
[Eb] [Ab] One of the [Eb] gals was fat [Ab] and pink and [Ebm] pretty
[Ab] As round [C] above as she was [F] round below
I [Bbm] could [Bb] swear that [Eb] she was padded [Ab] from her [C] shoulder [Fm] to her heel
[Bbm] But [Bb] later [Cm] in the [Eb] second [Ab] act when [C] she [Fm] begun to peel
She [C] proved that [Fm] everything [G] she [Ab] had was [Db] [Cm] absolutely [Bbm] real
She went [C] about as far as [F] she could go
