   D6       G9            D6
If you ever plan to motor west,
       G9                                  D6
Travel my way, take the highway that's the best.
         Em7      A7    D  A7
Get your kicks on Route 66.

   D6             G9       D6
It winds from Chi-cag-o to L.A.,
          G9                         D6
More than two thousand miles all the way.
         Em7      A7    D  A7
Get your kicks on Route 66.

        D
Now, it goes through Saint Louis,
G9
Joplin, Missouri,
    D                   D7
And Oklahoma City looks mighty pretty.

       G9
You'll see Amarillo,
D
Gallup, New Mexico,
Em7
Flagstaff, Arizona.
A7
Don't forget Winona,
F#m7     F7       Em7        A7
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernar-dino.

      D6      G9                 D6
Won't you get hip to this timely tip
         G9                   D6
When you make that California trip
         Em7      A7    D
Get your kicks on Route 66.

         Em7      A7    D
Get your kicks on Route 66.
         Em7      A7    D  D6
Get your kicks on Route 66.
