VERSE:
GDEm
I've got my old man's Delta '88
AmDBm7
The windows cracked I'm on the interstate
AmDEmC
Just a hundred miles to go on half a tank of gasoline
AmB
Lucky charms and Tic-Tacs and mom's amphetamines
CHORUS:
CDEm
A hundred miles to go to Kansas City
CDEm
February makes me kinda crazy
CDEm
A hundred miles to go to Kansas City
CDEm
Will you still be callin' me your baby
VERSE:
GDEm
I met a man in a diner outside of Hays
AmD
He said marriage brought him there
Bm7
It was divorce that made him stay
AmDEm
I drove straight through to Junction City
CAm
I thought I'd call you in Topeka
B
But I didn't want the pity
CHORUS:
CDEm
A hundred miles to go to Kansas City
CDEm
February makes me kinda crazy
CDEm
A hundred miles to go to Kansas City
CDEm
Will you still be callin' me your baby
BREAK:
AmEm
Feels like I been thrown into the slammer
AmEm
With the back end of a hammer
AmEm
Drawn over my strings
AmEm
Aw, living became needing
AmEm
My crying became bleeding
AmEm
And now I am only dreaming
INSTRUMENTAL: (Play CHORUS chords)

CHORUS:

Will you still be callin' me your baby

Oh will you still be callin' me
