[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/o/okkervil_river/kansas_city_crd.html ]
    D                     Em
The river is deep and the river is wide,
        G                   D
and the girl that I love is on the other side.
             D
She wants to move to Kansas City
Em
Move to Kansas city
  G                  D
 “Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue.”
      D                   Em
She’s walking down Ellum, turning down Main,
G                         D
trying to find someone to sell her cocaine.
             D
She wants to move to Kansas City
Em
Move to Kansas City
G                             D
“Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue.”
       D                  Em
With a dayful of promises dead on her lips,
G                 D
Mark 15:34 tucked next to her hip,
             D
she wants to move to Kansas City
Em
Move to Kansas City
G                             D
“Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue.”
  D                       Em
I jumped in the water and started to drown.
  G                          D
I thought of her walking and turned back around.
          D
I want to move to Kansas City,
Em
Move to Kansas City
G                            D
Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue.
         D                      Em
With her pair of old wings that opened just once,
        G                             D
she can walk on two feet now, she can go where she wants.
             D
She can even move to Kansas City,
Em
Move to Kansas City
G                           D
Move, pretty baby where the sky is so blue.
         D                          Em
And I’ll tell you one thing that you should never do -
      G                D
never let a woman tell you she loves you.
       D                      Em
She’ll call you “baby,” she’ll look in your eye,
            G                        D
then she’ll get on that airplane and wave “bye bye bye
        D           Em             G                D
bye bye bye bye bye baby. baby bye bye. bye bye bye bye bye bye."
D Em G D
[etc]
    D                         Em
And if I could believe what I want to believe,
    G                      D
I’d hold you all close and take you with me,
       D
all of you to Kansas City,
      Em
We'll move to Kansas City
G              D
Move where the sky is so blue...
