E (022100@1)                                                              B (x2444x@1)I left Oklahoma, drivin' in a Pontiac, just about to lose my mind.

I was goin' to Arizona maybe on to California, 
                                   E (022100@1) where the people all live so fine.

My baby said I's crazy, my mama called me lazy, 
                                   B (x2444x@1) I was gonna show'em all this time. 
  
Cuz you know I ain't no fool and I don't need no more schoolin',
                                  E (022100@1) I was born to just walk the line.

Chorus:

E (022100@1)                                       BLivin' (x2444x@1)on Tulsa time, livin' on tulsa time.

Well you know I've been through it when I set my watch back to it,
                      E (022100@1) livin' on Tulsa time.

(Instrumental)

EWell (022100@1)there I was in Hollywood, wishin' I was doin' good,
                               B (x2444x@1) talkin' on the telephone line.

But they don't need me in the movies and nobody sings my songs, 
                                E (022100@1) guess I'm just a waistin' time.

Well then I got to thinkin', man I'm really sinkin' 
                                    B (x2444x@1) and I really had a flash this time.

I had no business leavin' and nobody would be grievin' 
                                 E (022100@1) if I went on back to Tulsa time.

Repeat Chorus twice

*****Play with a laid back feel a.k.a the "Tulsa Sound"******
