Mardis Gras In Kansas Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

A E

AIt's Mardis gras in Kansas

 There ain't no paErade

Still I put on a boa and some plastic beads

 and this little tutu I mAade

And I walked up and down this midwest town

 All I could see were cDars

With working stiffs going to work as if

 They dEidn't know it was Mardi GAras

DMardis Gras in Kansas

 Ain't lAike it is in New Orleans

 There's no mEarching bands

No Dacquiri stands

 No hookers and no drag quAeens

 No touDrists falling in the gutter

 As they pAut their Margaritas away

EMardis Gras in Kansas

 Is just another TueAsday E

AI shoulda known something was up

 When I saw there was snow on the groEund

The neighbours were digging out their driveways

 And nobody else was aroAund

Thought I made a mistake

And got the wrong date

 Maybe this was all a drDeam

It's Mardi Gras, for sure

 But it's KaEnsas and not New OrlAeans E

DMardis Gras in Kansas

 It just aAin't the same

 There's no MaErdi Gras rows

No cups to go

 Nobody playing Eliza JAane

 Still I pDut on a rhumba

dance a little number

 But I fAelt like a kind of a freak

 Coz MaErdis Gras in Kansas

 Is just another day of the wAeek E

Solo

Play same chords as verse

 So nDext year I got a good plan babe

 I tAell you what we gonna do

 We're gonna clAose off every street

 And then the KaEnsas High School Marching Band

 are gonna learn a different bAeat E

DMardis Gras in Kansas

 Ain't lAike it is in New Orleans
