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!

You had to blow the middle-west
F7I went out in a mess
In situations C7where-abouts

Well baby, I got news for you
F7I'm from Missouri too
So, straight enough, I G7get my doubts!

You had them walking by the way-side
C7A feeling I ain't gonna know
You came a long way from F7St. Louis
But baby, you G7still got a long way C7to go!
