[D] [C] [D]
[G]
Hello?
[D] [G] Yes, I'm calling [C] to [G] arrange a [C] little trip
Somewhere [G] far away from [C] here
[G] By train or [D] plane or ship
[C] [G] I'd [D] like to leave [G]
today
It don't [Dm] have [G] to be [C] first class
No, it's not [G] for pleasure
[D] But I'll tell you since [G] you asked
[A] [G] I'm going someplace [C] to forget
Someplace her memory [G] won't show up
So far everywhere [D] I've been
Hasn't [G] been quite far enough
Is there a rocket [C] in the moon?
Haven't [G] been there yet
I just need to [D] leave real soon
I'm going someplace [G] to forget
Oh [C] [D]
[G]
[C] [G]
no, [D] there's [G] not much luggage
Just this old suitcase [C] of mine
The things that make [G] me think of her
I've got to [D] leave behind
[G]
Yes, [D] [G] I'll be returning
When?
[C] I don't know
It all depends [G] on how long it takes
[D] My heart to let [G] her go
I'm going someplace [C] to forget
Someplace her memory [G] won't show up
So far everywhere [D] I've been
[Em] [D]
Hasn't been quite [G] far enough
Is [Dm] there a [G] rocket [C] in the moon?
I haven't [G] been there yet
I just need to [D] leave real soon
I'm going someplace [G] to forget
I [D] just [G] need to [D] leave real soon
[Am]
I'm going someplace [G] to forget
[Am] [D] [G] [C] [G]
