G5                              F5  
By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be risin 
G5                                         F5  
She'll find  the note I left hangin on her door 
Bb5                          C5                 A5 D5 
She'll laugh when she reads the part that say I'm leaving 
D5          G5                         Eb5  C5 
Cause I've left that girl so many times before 
       G5                                F5  
By the time I make Albuquerque she'll be workin 
       G5                                   F5  
She'll probably stop at lunch and give me a call 
Bb5                    C5            A5  D5 
But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringin 
        G5            Eb5 C5 
Off the wall   that's all 
       G5                             F5  
By the time I make Oklahoma she'll be sleepin 
G5                                       F5  
She'll turn softly and call my name out low 
Bb5                 C5               A5   D5 
And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her 
     G5                C5                F5  
But time and time I've tried to tell her so 
Bb5          G5   A5              D5 
She just didn't know I would really go 
 
SOLO
