Guitar chords with lyrics

Difficulty: Intermediate 💪

D           A       Gdim      D     G   Gdim D
You came a long way from St. Louis
                 A    Gdim    D    G   Gdim D
You climbed the ladder of success
       A               Gdim     D
I've seen the town and country cars
          Bm             G            Em7   A7     D Fdim A7
That were parked out in front of your  fancy  adress
                    Gdim      D     G   Gdim D
You came a long way from St. Louis
             A      Gdim      D    G   Gdim D
You broke a lot of hearts between
      A             Gdim     D
I've seen a gang of gloomy gals
          Bm         G           Em7     A7     D   Gdim  D
Who were doin' all right til you came on the scene

Bridge:
              D7               G
You came here from the middle West
                 Gm7             C7          D
And certainly impressed the population hereabouts
            D7              G
Well, baby
I got news for you
                   Gm7     Em5-/7     A4/7          A7   Em7  G/B  A7
I'm from Missouri, too, so natcherly
I got my doubts
              A     Gdim    D       G   Gdim D
You got 'em droppin by the wayside
          A      Gdim    D    G   Gdim D
A feelin' I ain't gonna know
             A      Gdim       D
You came a long way from St. Louis
Bm         G         Em7      A7  D   G  Gdim D
But
Baby, you still got a long way to go
