N.C.                         C7
[tab]C7
You climbed the ladder of success

                             F7
I've seen the flashy foreign cars

                     G7
That were parked out in front of

             C7
Your fancy address!
[Verse 2]
N.C.                         C7
You came a long way from St. Louis

C7
You broke a lot of hearts between

                          F7
I've seen a lot of clever boys

                       G7
Who were doing all right

                          C7
Until you came on the scene!
[Pre-Chorus]
N.C.                        F7
You blew in from the middle-west

F7
I went out in a mess

              C7
In situations where-abouts

N.C.               F7
Well baby, I got news for you

F7
I'm from Missouri too

                       G7
So, straight enough, I get my doubts!
[Chorus]
N.C.                        C7
You got them walking by the way-side

C7
A feeling I am not going to know

                             F7
You came a long way from St. Louis

              G7                   C7
But baby, you still got a long way to go!

N.C.                       F7

I went out in a mess

              C7
In situations where-abouts

N.C.               F7
Well baby, I got news for you

You had them walking by the way-side

A feeling I ain't gonna know

                         F7
You came a long way from St. Louis

              G7                   C7
But baby, you still got a long way to go!
