Intro:
C G/B


Verse 1:

Am                     F            C         C G/B
  There's a light that fades from a young man

Am                    F              C                      G
  When you're old and gray, well, ya can't find the time of day

Am                F             C                      F
  Ain't no one to meet, seekin' shelter from the dead end streets

     C          G           C     C G/B
In a hotel room   in Kansas City

Verse 2:

Am                   F                    C       C G/B
  From the sunflower state, a fool came a-callin'

Am                F             C               G
  Sat down at the bar where the uptown ramblers meet

Am             F           C                   F
  Half a mile away you can still hear them guitars ring

          C               G           C     C G/B
They were ringin' for you   in Kansas City

Verse 3:

Am                     F                C       C G/B
  I could sit here for days waiting for answers

Am                 F               C                  G
  Or I could hop a train, what the hell have I got to lose?

Am                       F            C        F
  A million things on my mind, just a hobo passin' time

          C                  G           C     C G/B
And I was thinkin' about you   in Kansas City


Verse 4:

Am             F          C
  For a time I lived in a day's dream

Am             F             C               G
  When I last awoke I was in somebody else's head

Am                 F     C                      F
  Seven hours in a car, 45 minutes singin' in a bar

          C                  G           C     C G/B
And I was thinkin' about you   in Kansas City


Verse 5:

Am                     F            C         C G/B
  There's a light that fades from a young man

Am                    F              C                      G
  When you're old and gray, well, ya can't find the time of day

Am                F             C                     F
  Ain't no one to meet, seekin' shelter from a dead end street

     C          G           Am    F
In a hotel room   in Kansas City

      C                  G           C     G C
I was thinkin' about you   in Kansas City
