okay, the chords are very easy. it's just D Em G D the whole way through.
D Em
The river is deep and the river is wide,
G D
and the girl that I love is on the other side.
D
She wants to move to Kansas City
Em
Move to Kansas city
G D
“Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue.”
D Em
She’s walking down Ellum, turning down Main,
G D
trying to find someone to sell her cocaine.
D
She wants to move to Kansas City
Em
Move to Kansas City
G D
“Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue.”
D Em
With a dayful of promises dead on her lips,
G D
Mark 15:34 tucked next to her hip,
D
she wants to move to Kansas City
Em
Move to Kansas City
G D
“Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue.”
D Em
I jumped in the water and started to drown.

I want to move to Kansas City,
Em

G D
Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue.

she can walk on two feet now, she can go where she wants.

And I’ll tell you one thing that you should never do -
G D
never let a woman tell you she loves you.
D Em
She’ll call you “baby,” she’ll look in your eye,
G D
then she’ll get on that airplane and wave “bye bye bye
D Em G D
bye bye bye bye bye baby. baby bye bye. bye bye bye bye bye bye."
D Em G D
[etc]
D Em
And if I could believe what I want to believe,
G D
