       Gm7                              Fmaj7   
By the time I get to Phoenix, she'll be rising  
       Gm7                                  Fmaj7   
She'll find the note I left hanging, on her door  
       Bbmaj7                   C7                 Am7     Dm7  
She'll laugh when she reads the part, that say I'm leaving  
           Gm7                            Eb   C7  
Cause I've left that girl so many times before  
       Gm7                                Fmaj7   
By the time I make Albuquerque, she'll be working  
       Gm7                                  Fmaj7   
She'll probably stop at lunch and give me a call  
           Bbmaj7          C7             Am7     Dm7  
But she'll hear that empty phone, keep on ringing  
        Gm7          Eb  C7  
Off the wall, that's all  
       Gm7                              Fmaj7   
By the time I make Oklahoma, she'll be sleeping  
       Gm7                              Fmaj7   
She'll turn softly and call my name out low  
           Bbmaj7            C7         Am7       Dm7  
And she'll cry to think that I'd really leave her  
             Gm7              C7                Fmaj7   
But time and time again, I've tried to tell her so  
Bbmaj7          Gm7        A7             Cmaj7  
She just didn't know, that I would really go  

Final: Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Cmaj7
