The Devil Came From Kansas Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Oh, the devil came from Kansas.
[C]Where he wen[G]t to I can't say
[C]Though I tea[F]ch I'm not a preacher,
[C]and I aim[F] to stay that way[C]
There's a [G]monkey riding on my
[C]back [G]- been there for some time
[C]He say[F]s he knows me very well,
but [Dm]he's no friend of [F]mine[C]
[G]I am not a[F] humble pilg[C]rim
[Bb]There's no [F]need to [Eb]scrape and [Bb]squeeze
[Ab]And don't [Eb]beg f[F]or silver p[G]aper
When I'm [D]trying [F]to sell
you cheese

[Verse 2]
[F]
[C]Oh, the dev[G]il came from Kansas.
[C]where he wen[G]t to I can't say
[C]If you rea[F]lly are my brother
[C]then you'd bet[F]ter start to pray
[C]For the sin[G]s of those departed
[C]and the one[G]s about to go
[C]There's a dar[F]k cloud just above us,[Am]
don't [Dm]tell me 'cos I [F]know[C]
[G]I am not a humble pilg[C]rim
[Bb]There's no [F]need to [Eb]scrape and [Bb]squeeze
[Ab]And don't [Eb]beg f[F]or silver p[G]aper
When I'm [D]trying [F]to sell you cheese

[Verse 3]
No, I [G]never came from Kansas,
[C]don't forget[G] to thank the cook
[C]Which re [F]minds me of my
[C]duty: I was los[F]t and now I look
[C]For the tur[G]nings and the[C] signpost
and the [G]road which takes you down
[C]To that poo[F]l inside the forest in
[Dm]whose waters I [F]shall [C]drown
[G]I am not a humble pilg[C]rim
[Bb]There's no [F]need to [Eb]scrape and [Bb]squeeze
[Ab]And don't [Eb]beg f[F]or silver p[G]aper
When I'm [D]trying [F]to sell [C]you cheese
