It took another year before I started getting itchy toes
And then I had to leave, but that's the way the story goes
Well I reckon if she'd made me stay
I'd never live to see another day
I took the first flight out and left the girl I used to know back home

Maybe it's true that I go on and on and on
Maybe it's true that I'm the lonely one alone
What can I say to you, what can I say to you?
I took the first flight out and left the girl I used to know back home
     E (022100@1)     C#m (x13321@4)         B (x2444x@1)  EBack (022100@1)home, I left the girl back home
C#m (x13321@4)            B (x2444x@1)  E (022100@1) I left the girl back home
C#m (x13321@4)            B (x2444x@1)  E (022100@1)I left the girl back home
C#m (x13321@4)            B (x2444x@1)  E (022100@1)I left the girl back home
C#m (x13321@4)            B (x2444x@1)  E (022100@1)I left the girl back home
