By The Time I Get To Phoenix
FmEb
By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be rising
FmEb
She'll find the note I left hangin' on her door
AbBbGmCm
She'll laugh when she reads the part that says I'm leavin'
FmDbBb
'Cause I've left that girl so many times before
FmEb
By the time I make Albuquerque she'll be working
FmEb
She'll probably stop at lunch and give me a call
AbBbGmCm
But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringin'
FmDbBb
Off the wall that's all
FmEb
By the time I make Oklahoma she'll be sleepin'
FmEb
She'll turn softly and call my name out low
AbBbGmCm
And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her
FmDb
Though time and time I tried to tell her so
BbC
She just didn't know I would really go.
AD LIB:
BbCCb
No, she didn't know I'd go
