[G] [A]
[G] [A] [G] Here is darling I had to write to say that I [A] won't be home [D] anymore for [A] something [G] happened to me while I was driving home and I'm [A] not the same [D] anymore
Oh I [Cm] was only [C] 24 [Am] hours from Tulsa, [B] [C] a day away [Am] from your arms
[F] I saw a welcoming [G] light [B] and stopped to rest [G] for the night
[G] That is when I saw her as I pulled in outside of the small [A] motel
She [D] was there [G] and so I walked up to her, [G] asked where I could get something to eat [A] and she showed [D] me where
[C] Oh I was only 24 [Am] hours from Tulsa, [C] a day away [Am] from your arms
She [F] took me to the [G] cafe, [F] I asked [G] her if she would stay, she said okay
Oh [A]
[D] [G]
[A] [D] I [C] was only 24 [Am] hours from Tulsa, [C]
a day away from your [Am] arms
[F] A jukebox started [G] to play [A] and night time turned [G] into day as we were dancing closely
All of a sudden I lost control [A] as fire [G] held her child and I caressed her, kissed her, told her I'd die before I would [A] let her out [D] of my [Cm] arms
Oh [C] I was only 24 [Am] hours from Tulsa, [C] a day [Am] away from your arms
[F] I hate to [G] do this to you [F] but I love [G] somebody new
What [Eb] can [G] I do when I can never, never, never go [C] home again
[F]
