Verse 1: 
 
(Eb) (Bb) (Eb) 
The Devil came from Kansas 
(Bb) (Eb) 
Where he went to I can‘t say 
(Ab) (Eb) 
Though I teach I‘m not a preacher 
(Ab) (Eb) 
And I aim to stay that way 
(Bb) (Eb) 
There‘s a monkey riding on my back 
(Bb) (Eb) 
Been there for some time 
(Ab) (Cm) 
He says he knows me very well 
(Fm) (Ab) (Eb) 
But he‘s no friend of mine 
 
Chorus: 
 
(Bb) (Eb) 
I am not a humble pilgrim 
(Ab) (Ab7) (Db) 
There‘s no need to scrape and squeeze 
(Gb) (Ab) (Bb) 
And don‘t beg for silver paper 
(F) (Ab) (Eb) 
When I‘m trying to sell you cheese

Verse 2: 
 
The Devil came from Kansas 
Where he went to I can‘t say 
If you really are my brother 
Then you better start to pray 
For the sins of those departed 
And the ones about to go 
There‘s a dark cloud just above us 
Don‘t scowl because I know 
 
[repeat chorus] 
 
Guitar solo:

Verse 3: 
 
Though I never came from Kansas 
Don‘t forget to thank the cook 
Which reminds me of my duty 
I was lost though now I look 
For the turning and the signpost 
And the road which takes you down 
To that pool inside the forest 
In whose waters I shall drown 
 
[repeat chorus] 
 
Coda [guitar solo; repeat to fade]
