Lyrics & chords

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

[Verse 1]
Well, [G]I left Oklahoma
Drivin' in a Pontiac
Just about to lose my [D]mind
I was goin' to Arizona
Maybe on to California
Where people all live so [G]fine

[Verse 2]
My [G]mama says I'm crazy
My baby calls me lazy
But I'm going to show them all this [D]time
'Cause you know I ain't no fool
And I don't need no more damn school
Born to just walk the [G]line

[Chorus 1]
[G]Livin' on Tulsa Time
Livin' on Tulsa [D]Time
Gon' set my watch back to it
'Cause you know that I'll get through it
I'm livin' on Tulsa [G]Time

[Interlude 1]
[G][G][G][D]
[D][D][D][G][G]

[Verse 3]
Now [G]there I was in Hollywood
Thinkin' I was doin' good
Talkin' on the telephone [D]line
They don't want me in the movies
And nobody sings my songs
My mama says, "My baby's doin' [G]fine"

[Verse 4]
So [G]then I started winkin'
Then I started thinkin'
That I really had a flash this [D]time
That I had no business leavin'
And nobody would be grievin'
You see I'm on Tulsa [G]Time

[Chorus 2]
[G]Livin' on Tulsa Time
Livin' on Tulsa [D]Time
I'll set my watch back to it
'Cause you know that I'll get through it
I'm livin' on Tulsa [G]Time

[Chorus 3]
[G]Livin' on Tulsa Time
Livin' on Tulsa [D]Time
Gon' set my watch back to it
'Cause you know that I'll get through it
I'm livin' on Tulsa [G]Time

[Interlude 2]
[G][G][G][D]
[D][D][D][G]

[Outro 1]
[G][G][G][D]
[D][D][D][G]
[Repeat and fade]
