Key: D

1* -1    2  2  2  2   2    2   
By the time I get to Phoe-nix 
  -1   -3 -3  -2*
she'll be ris-ing
  -1     2   2    2
She'll find the note 
2   2    2   2  -1 -3   -2*
I left hang-in' on her door
 -3      -4   -4  -4   -4
She'll laugh when she reads 
-4   -4    3   -3  -4   -3  -3
the part that says I'm leav-in'
   2    -2*   3    3   3
'Cause I've left that girl 
3  -2*-2*  2   -1  2
so man-y times be-fore

1* -1    2  2  2   2  2   2    2
By the time I make Al-bu-quer-que 
  -1   -3  -3  -2*
she'll be work-ing
  -1    2   2    2   2    2
She'll pro-b'ly stop at lunch 
 2   2   -1 -3 -2*
and give me a call
-3    -4    -4   -4   -4   -4
But she'll just hear that phone 
 -3  -4  -3  -3
keep on ring-in'
 2  -2*   2    -1    2
Off the wall that's all

1* -1   2   2  2   2  2  2  2
By the time I make Ok-la-ho-ma 
  -1   -3   -3 -2*
she'll be sleep-in'
  1*    -1    2  2   2   2   2   -1  -3   -2*
She'll turn soft-ly and call my name out loud
-3    -3   -4   -4  -4   -4
And she'll cry just to think 
 3   -3  -4   -3  -3
I'd real-ly leave her
2-2*  3    3    3   3     3   -2*  3  -3 -2* 
Tho' time and time I’ve tried to tell her so
-1   -1   2  -2*  2   2  -1    1*  3 -2*
She just did-n't know I would real-ly go.
