[Dm] I don't think [Gm] in the last 15 years there's been a [F] better songwriter of popular songs
my friend Jimmy Webb, and no song any better than this one.
I get to Phoenix, she'll [F] be rising.
[C] [Gm] She'll find the note that I left her hanging [C] on her door.
[A] [Bb] She'll laugh [Gm] when she reads the part that [Am] says I'm leaving,
[Dm] cause [Gm] I've left that girl so many times [Eb] before.
[C] And [Gm] by the time I make Albuquerque, she'll [F] be working.
[Gm] She'll probably stop at lunch, Lord, and give [F] me a call.

if he could just give me one of them, you know.
Yeah, why didn't you ask?
Well, I'm asking you now.
Give me your hits.
