Db
Dearest, darlin', I had to write to say that I won't
   Eb      Ab
be home anymore.
              Db
For something happened to me, as I was driving home,
                Eb      Ab
and I'm not the same anymore.

CHORUS:
          Gb                          Ebm        Gb
Oh, I was only twenty-four hours from Tulsa, oh, only
                       Ebm
one day away from your arms.
  B                 Db        B
I saw the welcoming light and stopped to rest for the

night.

Db
And that is when I saw him, as I pulled in outside of
        Eb           Ab
a small hotel he was there.
         Db
And so I walked up to him, asked where I could get
                 Ab  Eb           Ab
something to eat and he showed me where.


CHORUS:
Db        Gb                          Ebm        Gb
Oh, I was only twenty-four hours from Tulsa, oh, only
                       Ebm
one day away from your arms.
   B              Db          B                   Db
He took me to the cafe and he asked me if I would stay.

I said, okay.

#3.
    B                  Db       B
The jukebox started to play and night time turned into
Db
day.
Db
As we were dancing closely, all of a sudden I lost
           Eb         Ab
control as he held me tight.
            Db
And then he kissed me, caressed me, told me he would
                           Eb         Ab
die before he would let me out of his arms.

one day away from your arms.
  B                  Db       B                   Db
I hate to do this to you, but I've found somebody new.

What can I do?
Db                                 Gb
And I could never, never, never go home again.
 Gb                         Ab Gb
(aaa-ooo..aaa-ooo..aaa-ooo)
