I'm going to leave here by plane, darling

Because railway is much too slow

[Verse 2]

B             E      B
I'm going back to my hometown

A
Where I'm better known

                    E
Because you haven't done nothing, darling

But ruin a happy home

Now, when the sun sinks in the hillside

The one you love will be gone

        E
And I know I will be blue darling

But somehow I'll just travel on

Or would you prefer to just say goodbye

               E
Because I will turn and leave you darling

I don't want to see you cry
