TULSA TIME
Capo 9th fret to play along with the recorded version, or transpose -3.
[Verse 1]
G
I left Oklahoma drivin’ in a Pontiac
D
Just about to lose my mind
I was goin’ to Arizona, maybe on to California
G
Where the people all live so fine
My baby said I’s crazy, my momma called me lazy
D
I was gonna show ’em all this time
‘Cause you know I ain’t no fool an’ I don’t need no more schoolin’
G
I was born to just walk the line
[Chorus]
G
Livin’ on Tulsa time
D
Livin’ on Tulsa time
Well you know I’ve been through it
When I set my watch back to it
G
Livin’ on Tulsa time
[Verse 2]
G
Well there I was in Hollywood, wishin’ I was doin’ good
D
Talkin’ on the telephone line
But they don’t need me in the movies and nobody sings my songs
G
Guess I’m just wastin’ time
Well then I got to thinkin’, man I’m really sinkin’
D
And I really had a flash this time
I had no business leavin’ and nobody would be grievin’
G
If I went on back to Tulsa time
[Chorus]
G
Livin’ on Tulsa time
D
Livin’ on Tulsa time
Gonna set my watch back to it
‘Cuz you know I’ve been through it
G
Livin’ on Tulsa time
G
Livin’ on Tulsa time
D
Livin’ on Tulsa time
Gonna set my watch back to it
‘Cuz you know I’ve been through it
G
Livin’ on Tulsa time
