Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]By t[D]he[G][Am][Dsus4][G][Bm]
[G]tim[D]e I[Am] get to Phoenix,
[Dsus4]he'll be rising[G][Bm][G]
An[Am]d he'll find the note
I left a [Dsus4]-hangin' on [G]his [D]door[G]
And he'll [C]laugh when he [G]reads [D]the
part that says [Bm]I'm l[Em]eavin'
For [Am]I've left that man
so many times be[F]fore
[D]By [Bbm]the time I make Albuquerque
[Ebsus4]he'll be w[Ab]orkin'
And [Bbm]he'll probably stop at lunch
[Ebsus4]to give me a cal[Db]l[Ab][Eb][Ab]
But [Db]he'll just hear that [Eb]phone
[Cm]keep on a -ringing [Fm]off t[Bbm]he wall
[Gb]That's [Eb]all, by the [Bm]time I make Oklahoma,
[D]he'[A]ll be sle[E]epin'
[A]He'[Bm]ll turn softly
and he'll call my [Esus4]name out [A]loud[E][A]
And [D]he'll cry [E]just [G#dim]to think [E]I'd
[C#m]really leave him[F#m]
[Bm]Though time and [E]time I've
tried [A]to tell him [D]so
He just [G]didn't know [D]I[Bm][C#]
would really [F#]go[Bm][D][A]
And he'll [D]cry, just [E]to think I'd
[G#dim]really le[C#m]ave hi[F#m]m
[Bm]Oh, time and t[E]ime, I tried[A] to tell him so,
[D]He just didn't kno[G]w,
[G#dim]I would really go[C#].[F#][E][F#][E][C#m][E][F#]
[E][E][F#]
