By The Time I Get To Phoenix
Writer: Jimmy Webb
(verse 1)
Am7
By the time I get to Phoenix,
Gm7
She'll be rising,
Am7
She'll find my note I left hanging,
Gm7 C D7
On her door, She'll laugh when she reads the part,
Bm7 Em7 Am7
That says i'm leaving, Cause I left that girl,
F D7
So many times before,
(verse 2)
Am7
By the time I make Albuquerque,
Gm7 Am7
She'll be working, She'll probably stop at lunch,
Gm7 C D7
And give me a call, But she'll just hear that phone,
Bm7 Em7 Am7 F D7
Keep on ringing, Off the wall that's all,
(verse 3)
Am7 Gm7
By the time I make Oklahoma, She'll be sleeping,
Am7 Gm7
She'll turn softly, And call my name out low,
C D7 Bm7 Em7
She'll cry just to think, I'd really leave her,
Am7 D7 Gm7 Cm7
Tho' time and time, I've tried to tell her so,
Am7 B7 E D - E
She just didn't know, I would really go
