F                          Bb
Manhattan, Kansas ain't no place to have a baby

         F                              C
When you got no man to give it his last name

        F                              Bb
And her folks back in Manhattan didn't want her or her bundle

       F                  C                 F
So she took her child and caught an evenin' train.

F                                 Bb
She found a job in Denver washing dishes in a diner

   F                              C
At least it buys her baby milk to drink

        F                               Bb
He once told her she was pretty but the only ring it got her

        F                   C               F
Was the ring of grease that runs around the sink.

        C               
Yes she lay beside him gentle

          Bb          
'Cause he told her that he loved her

       D#               Bb             C      F7   D#7  C7
And he made her dance before the music played

       F        
But at least she didn't beg him

      Bb                 
She'd rather wash her dishes

   F                 C                F
It makes her feel as if her hands are clean.

F
At night she stands there thinkin'

          Bb
'Bout the man back home in Kansas

    F                                  C
And how her folks just turned away the shame

    F         
She stares down through the soap suds

        Bb
Reaches down and pulls the drain plug

    F              C            F
And watches as Manhattan drains away.

        C
Yes she layed beside him gentle

          Bb
'Cause he told her that he loved her

       D#               Bb             C      F7  D#7  C7
And he made her dance before the music played

        F            
But at least she didn't beg him

      Bb  
She'd rather wash her dishes

   F                        C         F      Bb F
It makes her feel as if her hands are clean.

                         C                F
Yes it makes her feel as if her hands are clean...
