 By the  time I get to  Phoenix
 she'll be  risin
 She'll find the note I left  hangin
 on her door
 She'll  laugh when she reads the  part
 that say I'm  leaving
 Cause I've  left that girl so many times be-  fore
 By the  time I make Albu-  querque
 she'll be  workin
 She'll  probably stop at  lunch
 and  give me a call
 But she'll just hear that  phone
 keep on  ringin
 Off the wall
 that's all
 By the  time I make Okla-  homa
 she'll be  sleepin
 She'll  turn softly
 and call  my name out  low
 And  she'll cry just to  think
 I'd really  leave her
 But  time and time I've  tried
 to tell her  so
 She just didn't  know
 I would really  go
 D7sus2 - D13sus2 - D7sus2 -  -  -  repeat + fade
