E                       A
I think i'm going to katmandu,
                                E
That's really, really where i'm going to.
              B
If i ever get out of here,
B7                        E
That's what i'm gonna do.
             A
k-k-k-k-k-katmandu,
                         E
I think that's where i'm going to.
                 B
If i ever get out of here,
B7                     E
I'm going to katmandu.

                          A
I got no kick against the west coast
                         E
Warner brothers are such good hosts.
                             B
I raise my whiskey glass and give them a toast,
B7                           E
I'm sure they know it's true.
                         A
I got no rap against the southern states.
                           E
Every time i've been there it's been great.
                          B
But now i'm leaving and i can't be late
B7                    E
And to myself be true.

                           A
That's why i'm going to katmandu,
                              E
Up to the mountains where i'm going to,
                  B
And if i ever get out of here
B7                        E
That's what i'm gonna do.
                       A
K - k - k - k - k - katmandu,
                                E
That's really, really where i'm going to,
                  B
Oh, if i ever get out of here
B7                      E
I'm going to katmandu.

                          A
I got no quarrel with the midwest,
                              E
The folks out there have given me their best.
                                B
I lived there all my life, i've been thier guest,
B7                        E
I sure have loved it, too.
                            A
I'm tired of looking at the t.v. news.
                              E
I'm tired of driving hard and paying dues.
                         B
I figure, baby, i've got nothing to lose,
B7                       E
I'm tired of being blue.

                           A
That's why i'm going to katmandu,
                              E
Up to the mountains where i'm going to,
                  B
And if i ever get out of here
B7                        E
That's what i'm gonna do.
                       A
K - k - k - k - k - katmandu,
                          E
Take me, baby, 'cause i'm going with you.
              B
If i ever get out of here
B7                     E
I'm going to katmandu.

(lead break)
                                A
I ain't got nothing 'gainst the east coast.
                               E
You want some people well they got the most.
                           B
And new york city's like a friendly ghost,
B7                             E
You seem to pass right through.
                          A
I know i'm gonna miss the u.s.a.,
                           E
I guess i'll miss it every single day,
                         B
But no one loves me here anyway,
B7                      E
I know my plane is due.

                        A
The one that's going to katmandu,
                              E
Up to the mountains where i'm going to.
              B
If i ever get out of here,
B7                        E
That's what i'm gonna do.

             A

                       E
Really, really, really going to,
                 B
If i ever get out of here,
                 B7
If i ever get out of here,
                 C7
If i ever get out of here,
B7                    E       A
I'm going to katmandu
