[Verse 1]
D G
He always found it hard to take her
Em A D G
She wouldn't listen to advice
D G
And though he never tried to make her
Em G Bm
She often thought it would be nice
[Chorus]
A D
Oh, and now she's headin' out to California
A D
It's been a long time comin' but she's feeling like a woman tonight
A D
And she left a little letter said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada
G D Em A D A
Goodbye, goodbye.
[Verse 2]
D G
She tried for years to be a good wife
Em A D G
It never quite got off the ground
D G
And all those stories of the good life
Em G Bm
Convinced her not to hang around
[Chorus]
A D
Oh, and now she's heading out to California
A
And she doesn't know what's comin' but she's sure of what she's
D
leaving behind
A D
And she left a little letter said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada
G D Em A
Goodbye, goodbye.
[Instrumental]
D G Em D A
[Bridge]
D G
And though she finds it hard to leave him
Em A D G
She knows it would be worse to stay
D G
He wouldn't understand the reasons
Em G Bm
That make a woman run away
[Final Chorus]
A D
Oh, and now she's heading out to California
A D
With some money in her pocket she's a rocket on the fourth of July
A D
And she left a little letter said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada
G D Em A D
Goodbye, good-Oh, and now she's heading out to California
A D
With some money in her pocket she's a rocket on the fourth of July
A D
And she left a little letter said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada
G D Em A
Goodbye, goodbye.
D
