YOU CAME A LONG WAY FROM ST. LOUIS As recorded by Chuck Berry (From the 1965 Album CHUCK BERRY IN LONDON) [Verse 1] N.C. C7 You came a long way from St. Louis
C7You climbed the ladder of success I've seen the flashy foreign F7cars That were parked out G7in front of Your fancy adC7dress!
[Verse 2] N.C. C7 You came a long way from St. Louis
C7You broke a lot of hearts between I've seen a lot of clever F7boys Who were doing all righG7t Until you came on the scenC7e!
[Pre-Chorus] N.C. F7 You blew in from the middle-west
F7I went out in a mess In situations C7where-abouts N.C. F7 Well baby, I got news for you F7I'm from Missouri too So, straight enough, I G7get my doubts!
[Chorus] N.C. C7 You got them walking by the way-side
C7A feeling I am not going to know You came a long way from St. F7Louis But baby, you G7still got a long way C7to go!
[Guitar Solo] N.C. C7 F7 G7 C7 [Piano Solo] N.C. C7 F7 G7 C7 [Pre-Chorus] N.C. F7 You had to blow the middle-west
F7I went out in a mess In situations C7where-abouts N.C. F7 Well baby, I got news for you F7I'm from Missouri too So, straight enough, I G7get my doubts!
