D           A       Gdim      D     G   Gdim D 
You came a long way from St. Louis 
                 A    Gdim    D    G   Gdim D 
You climbed the ladder of success 
       A               Gdim     D 
I've seen the town and country cars 
          Bm             G            Em7   A7     D Fdim A7 
That were parked out in front of your  fancy  adress 
                    Gdim      D     G   Gdim D 
You came a long way from St. Louis 
             A      Gdim      D    G   Gdim D 
You broke a lot of hearts between 
      A             Gdim     D 
I've seen a gang of gloomy gals 
          Bm         G           Em7     A7     D   Gdim  D 
Who were doin' all right til you came on the scene 

Bridge:
