By The Time I Get To Phoenix Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[Asus4]By the time I get to Phoenix,
[D]he'll be rising.
[Asus4]He'll find the note I left
hangin' [D]on his door.
[G]He'll laugh when he rea[A]ds the part
that says [F#m]I'm le[Bm]avin',
[Em]'Cause I've left that man so
many times be[C]fore.
[A]

[Verse 2]
By the [Asus4]time I make Albuquerque,
[D]he'll be workin'.
[Asus4]He'll prob'ly stop at
lunch and give me a [D]call.
[G]But he'll just hear that [A]'phone
keep [F#m]on rin[Bm]gin',[Em]
Off [C]the wall; that's [A]all.

[Verse 3]
[A]By [Asus4]the time I make Oklahoma,
[D]he'll be [Asus4]sleepin'
He'll turn softly and call
my [D]name out low.
Might [G]even cry,
just [A]to think I'd [F#m]really [Bm]leave,
[Em]Though time an' [A]time I
tried to tell [D]him [G]so.
He [Em]just didn't know [F#]that I would
[B]really go.

[Outro 1]
