[INTRO:] D F D G D F D G
[VERSE 1:]
I'm [D]on my way, I got no time to [F]waste
[D]Places to go, people to [F]chase
Gonna [D]grab my comb 'n my tooth[G]paste
[D]Gotta get away from here[F][D][G]
[VERSE 2:]
[D]Twenty-one years from the day I was [F]born
I was [D]working on the night shift, tooting my [F]horn
Through [D]sheets of rain, through sleet and [G]storm
You come to me[F][D][F]
[CHORUS:]
[G]You were the girl with the summer sunshine
[Dm]In your eyes and in your smile
[G]You were the one I thought loved me
It was [D]something I [C]never could quite be[G]lieve
[D]Gotta get away from here[F][D][G]
[VERSE 3:]
I'm a [D]real bad loser, that's what I [F]am
Gonna [D]grab my hat and my hexa[F]gram
You can [D]stick my money in an old tin [G]can
I [D]think I fell in love again[F][D][G]
[VERSE 4:]
I was [D]down by the bus stop biding my [F]time
I was [D]hitching a ride with a friend of [F]mine
I was [D]almost gone, I was over the [G]line
I said, "[D]What's come over me?"[F][D][F]
[CHORUS:]
[G]You were the girl with the sound of springtime
[Dm]In your songs and in your voice
[G]You were the one I thought loved me
It was [D]something I [C]never could quite be[G]lieve
[D]Gotta get away from here [F]
[D]Gotta get back to you [F]
