VERSE:
 G           D   Em
I`ve got my old man`s Delta `88

   Am         D      Bm7
The windows cracked I`m on the interstate

    Am       D   Em         C
Just a hundred miles to go on half a tank of gasoline

    Am           B
Lucky charms and Tic-Tacs and mom`s amphetamines



CHORUS:
      C    D      Em
A hundred miles to go to Kansas City

 C    D       Em
February makes me kinda crazy

      C    D       Em
A hundred miles to go to Kansas City

C          D       Em
 Will you still be callin` me your baby



VERSE:
  G       D        Em
I met a man in a diner outside of Hays

     Am          D
He said marriage brought him there

  Bm7
It was divorce that made him stay

  Am          D       Em
I drove straight through to Junction City

      C        Am
I thought I`d call you in Topeka

 B
But I didn`t want the pity




CHORUS:
      C    D      Em
A hundred miles to go to Kansas City

 C    D       Em
February makes me kinda crazy

      C    D       Em
A hundred miles to go to Kansas City

C          D       Em
 Will you still be callin` me your baby



BREAK:
          Am       Em
Feels like I been thrown into the slammer

     Am      Em
With the back end of a hammer

Am        Em
 Drawn over my strings

Am         Em
Aw, living became needing

  Am      Em
My crying became bleeding

    Am     Em
And now I am only dreaming

A hundred miles to go to Kansas City

 C    D       Em
February makes me kinda crazy

      C    D       Em
A hundred miles to go to Kansas City

C          D       Em
 Will you still be callin` me your baby

  C         D   Em
Oh will you still be callin` me
