#1.
G
I stopped cause there was nothing else to do.
      D                                   G
And I thought I'd stick around for just a while.
      C                                    Em7
But I warned you like the west wind, I was only
        C
blowin' through.
    D                                   G
And no one could ever make me change my style.

CHORUS:
                      C              G
Cause I never sung no stayin' song before.
     D
I've done them blues and good-bye tunes a thousand
         G
times or more.
                      C                    G
And it seems a little strange that I ain't headin'
        C
for the door.
      G             D               G
But I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought
    D                 G             D
I'd stay this long, I never sung no stayin' song
  G
before.

#2.
G                    C                 G
I usually leave when all the words are said.
         D                                       G
But with you there's always more sweet things to say.
G                         C                 G
And when my mind starts a wanderin' up that windin'
      C        D                                G
road ahead..my feet don't seem to want to walk away.

CHORUS:
                    C              G
And I never sung no stayin' song before.
     D
I've done them blues and good-bye tunes a thousand
         G
times or more.
                      C                    G
And it seems a little strange that I ain't headin'
        C
for the door.
      G             D               G
But I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought
    D                 G             D
I'd stay this long, I never sung no stayin' song
  G
before.

G                     C                   G
Last night I heard an old freight whistle blow..
   D                             G
as I was sleeping warmly in your bed.
       Cm                 C                 Bm
And it told me, boy, it's time that you was packing up
   C         D                                    G
to go..but I smiled and shook the leaving from my head.

CHORUS:
                    C              G
And I never sung no stayin' song before.
     D
I've done them blues and good-bye tunes a thousand
         G
times or more.
                      C                    G
And it seems a little strange that I ain't headin'
        C
for the door.
      G             D               G
But I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought
    D                 G             D
I'd stay this long, I never sung no stayin' song
  G
before.

OUTRO:
G               D               G                 D
I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay
           G             D              G
so long..I never sung no stayin' song before.

(I don't think so)
  G             D               G                 D
I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay

this long..(Fade.)
