G C G Born in Kansas City, yes I grew up in this town G D G Born in Kansas City, and I ain’t traveled around C G Em D And if I don’t leave here soon I think that I might go insane C G D G Born in Kansas City, ya, this state it rules my brain
G C G Came from California yes I moved out to this state G D G My parents said don’t worry, we’re sure it will be great C G Em D But now that I’ve grown older, I’ve come to realize C G D G If I don’t leave here soon I will rip out my fucking eyes
C G Gotta get the fuck outta kansas D G Gotta get the fuck outta here C G Gotta get the fuck outta kansas D G It’s time to disappear
G C G Well I got a full-time job but man we all know how that goes G D G You work and slave all day and in the end it never shows C G Em D And in my heart I know, my life is doomed to fail C G D G If i get stuck forever, working in retail G C G Been trying to save our money, to get a place to call our own G D G Been trying to save our money, a little place we can call home C G Em D But our bank accounts are empty, seems that it’s no use C G D G Cuz we spend all our money on cigarettes and booze
[chorus] [solo - same as verse]
G C G Seems that I am stuck here, can’t deny that anymore G D G Hope I can get out one day and see the California shore C G EmD Til then I’ll laugh and drink and fuck, and play on my guitar C G D G And all that I can hope is that one day it’ll take me far G C G Some days I get the feeling, I will never be anything G D G Like I’m going through the motions until the thought it stats to sting C G Em D And it doesn’t help that I am stuck living in a place like this C G D G Oh it’s time to leave forever, this place will not be missed
