I took my baby across the country

When we finally made it out to the sea,

       Am                            Em (Riff 1)
I was thinkin' that I made a mistake

When we started out, she was so sweet

Now she's got me and she's walkin' on me

What was I thinking? Now I've gotta leave

She heard me fumblin' to start the car

          Am                             Em (Riff 1)
But I was clumsy, but I couldn't stop now

                                                Em Em (mute)
She said if I leave her, she's followin' me (followin' me)

I said baby, just let me be (let me be)
