Washington, D.C.
C G
It's paradise to me
Am C G D
It's not because it is the grand old seat
Am C G
Of precious freedom and democracy
D
no, no, no
C Em Am
It's not the greenery turning gold in fall
G D D7
The scenery circling the Mall
Am C
It's just that's where my baby lives
G
That's all.
G D
Washington, D.C.!
C G
It's the greatest place to be
Am C G D
It's not the cherries everywhere in bloom
Am C G
It's not the way they put folks on the moon
D
No, no, no
C Em Am
It's not the spectacles and pageantry
G D D7
The thousand things you've got to see
Am C G
It's just that's where my baby waits for me
W a-s-h i-n-g t-o-n, baby, D.C.!
W a-s-h i-n-g t-o-n, baby, D.C.!

Washington, D.C.!

It fits me to a T
Am C G D
It's not the people doing something real
Am C G
It's not the way the springtime makes you feel
D
No, no, no
C Em Am
It ain't no famous name on a golden plaque
G D D7
That makes me ride that railroad track
Am C G
It's my baby's kiss that keeps me coming back
C D G
It's my baby's kiss that keeps me coming back
