[Verse 2]
By the time I get to phoenix [G]he'll
be [C]risin'[G][Gsus4]
He'll find the note I left
hangin' [C]on his door
[F]And he'll laugh when he reads [Gsus4]the part
that says [Em]I'm leav[Am]in'
'Cause [Dm]I've left that man so
many [Bb]times [G]before

[Verse 3]

[C]he'll be workin'
He'll [Gsus4]probably stop at lunch

keep [Em]on ri[G]ngin'[Am]
[Dm]Off the [Bb]wall, that's a[G]ll

[Verse 4]
By the [Gsus4]time I make oklahoma
[C]he'll be sleepin'

call my name [C]out low
And he'll [F]cry just to [Gsus4]think I'd[G]
[Em]really leave [Am]him
[Dm]Though time [G]and time
I've tried to tell [C]him [F]so
Oh, he just [Dm]didn't [E]know

I [A]would really go
