[Verse 1]
Am C
I get that itch for leaving
G Am
There sure is a lot to see
Am C
When I hear those big jets winding
G Am
It makes me wanna leave
Am C
I've never been to Paris
G Am
Still never been to Maine
Am C
I sure like California
G Am
I could leave on the next plane
Am C
When I hear your voice a-call me
G Am
Begging me to stay
Am C
I'm torn and I'm tattered
G Am
The sky is turned to gray
Am C
My mind is numb and I haven't slept
G Am
And my heart it aches for you
Am C
If I stay here, my darling
G Am
I don't know if I'll make it through
[Solo 1]

[Verse 2]
Am C
On the 18th day of December
G Am
That's when I did go
Am C
I packed my bags and I headed south
G Am
I walked right out the door
Am C
All alone in that dwelling place
G Am
As cold as cold could be
Am C
Not a soul inside that evening
G Am
Just this feeling of relief
[Solo 2]

[Verse 3]
Am C
She's as fine as the evening sun
G Am
That, I would not lie
Am C
But I would not give my life to her
G Am
No matter how hard I tried
Am C
I may never find another
G Am
I've come to realize
Am C
But you can't hold back a roaming man
G Am
Darling, I apologize
Am C
I broke her heart so suddenly
G Am
Like a thief in the night
Am C
But as sure as the morning comes
G Am
I know what I did was right
Am C
I did not mean to lead you on
G Am
For that you won't forget
Am C
This heart of mine is breaking
G Am
And I'm filled with regret
[Solo 3]

[Verse 4]
Am C
It breaks my heart to know, dear
G Am
I couldn't ever say goodbye
Am C
But I know, my darling
G Am
You'd be unhappy as my bride
Am C
You'll surely find another man
G Am
Who will take you as his wife
Am C
And I'll be alone, my dear
G Am
Living the bachelor's life
