_ _ _ He'd [A] just smile and say I'm sorry
_ [D] Well, there's no need to worry
Just [A] go to meet [D] some [A] army buddies
Drink [E] some beer _
[A] fight the war _ _ _ _ _
in the kitchen
making wishes _
[D] As she tidies up the dishes _
[A] of another
_ [D] _ [A] Lonely weekend _

[A] And the nights they hold no pity _ _
[D] in the cold of New York City _ _
[A] While she waits [D] there in [A] the darkness _
[E] Terry's key turn
[A] in the door _

_ waiting by _
_ [E] Telephone [Ab] and [A] she said I'll always love you
_ [D] And I never will
Forget you
[A] But I just [D] can't take [A] this lonely
_ _ [Bm] feeling _
[A] anymore _ _ _ _ _
She [E] said I'm going to
_ California to [D] taste the sunshine and [A] the wine _
[D] Sit beside the [A] rolling ocean _
And slowly pass [E] the time _
[A] Reading books [D] and all [A] love stories
[D] And forget about
my worries
[A] and maybe
[D] Who [A] knows maybe? _
_ [E] We'll meet again [A] sometime _
_ _ _ _ Now the nights are long
lonely
_ [D] As he sits and watches TV
_ [A] drinking beer [D] and [A] chase and whiskey
_ wondering where it all [E] went wrong
_ [A] And his eyes are tired
and burning
[D] From the dreams that keep returning
_ _ [A] And [D] all is [A] yesterday

_ [A] alone _ _ _ _
She [E] said I'm going to _ California
To [D] taste the sunshine and [A] the wine _
[D] Sit beside the [A] rolling ocean _
And slowly pass [E] the time _
[A] Reading books [D] and all [A] love stories _
[D] And forget about
my worries _
_ [A] And [D] maybe who [A] knows maybe? _
We'll [E] meet again
