[F] Chicago Charlie was a [C] good time Rome-[F]o,
[F] He'd love a gal, then whisper, [C7] "good-bye, cheeri-[F]o."
Just [A] like Napo-[Dm]leon, love [Am] got [A] Charlie, [Dm] too,
Here's [G7] how Chicago [C7] Charlie said he [D] met his [C7] Waterloo.
[F] I left Frisco [Bb] Kate, [F] swingin' on the Golden [Bb] Gate,
When [F] Kansas City Kitty [C7] smiled at [F] me!
[F] I left Ma and [Bb] Pa, [F] out in O-maha-ha-[Bb]ha,
When [F] Kansas City Kitty [C7] smiled at [F] me!
She comes from [A7] Missouri and she [D7] showed me,
Like a Texas [G7] steer she buffa-[C7]loed me;
[F] Every Jim and [Bb] Jack got the [F] well known Hacken-[Bb]sack,
When [F] Kansas City Kitty [C7] smiled at [F] me!
[F] I just played the [Bb] chill for the [F] famous Diamond [Bb] Lil
When [F] Kansas City Kitty [C7] smiled at [F] me!
[F] Folks in New Ro-[Bb]chelle said that [F] he ain’t done right by [Bb] Nell
When [F] Kansas City Kitty [C7] smiled at [F] me!
[A7] I gave Georgia Brown my watchcase, this [D7] Sunday
And [G7] I gave Louisville Lou the works on [C7] Monday
[F] I passed up those [Bb] Queens, I could [F] pass up Boston [Bb] beans
When [F] Kansas City Kitty [C7] smiled at [F] me!
[F] Chicago [Bb] Charlie singing [C] "no more [F] wedding bells"
[F] He got a sore throat singing [C] "no more [F] baby yells"
They [A] wake the [Dm] neighbours [Am] when they [A] start to [Dm] cry
And Charlie [Gm] has to [C] pacify [D] them with this [C] lullaby
[F] Men give up their [Bb] lives, lots of [F] them give up their [Bb] wives
For a [F] smile that Kitty [C7] smiled at [F] me!
And [A] once a [Dm] Russian [Am] Czar took a bath in [A] cavi-[Dm]ar
For a [F] smile like Kitty [C7] smiled at [F] me!
[A7] All she has to do is smile so [D7] simple
Show [G7] he pearly teeth and pretty [C] dimple
[F] Other gals don't [Bb] start [F] I give them the Marble [Bb] Arch
When [F] Kansas City Kitty [C7] smiles at [F] me!
