Kansas City Cifras

Kansas City - Damien Jurado
 
Great song.  Easy to play, was harder to figure out than others Ive done, but here
it is.  Listen to the song for rhythm and intro.  He capoes at 5, but I like it at 2.

Kansas City, he asks me how I've been
  Bm           A                  Em
I lie and then say that I've been fine
Bm                 A    Em

    Bm         A                Em
I belong to my mother who's now gone
Bm             A      Em
Always left to leave, that's why he has returned

I know I should have been thrilled

       Bm           A        Em
I will learn to get by on my own
Bm             A      Em
Orphaned by my stake, call him by his name
  Bm       A            Em
I know someday I will return
