    E A   B  A  E D E
    
    
    [Verse 1]
    E
    Hopped a train
     out 
    of El Paso
    Tried to follow
     but 
        A
    she stole my
     keys
    Knew I loved 
    to chase 
       B
    tornadoes
    A      
    The first 
    time that I 
    watched her 
    E    D A
    leave

    [Verse 2]
    E
    She leaves her
     boots 
    out by the 
    front door
    To let me know
     she 
            A
    needs a change
    of scene
    Sprays her perfume 
          B
    on my pillow
    A      
    When she can’t
     keep 
            E
    me company
    
    
    [Chorus]
    D     
    If she stays or 
    A  
    flies away to 
    E
    Heaven only knows
    D                
    She can take 
       A 
    my heart 
    and keep her
    E
    wings
    Bm    
    I don’t say 
        A  
    goodbye 
    when it 
          E
    comes time to
     let her go
         G    
    I’ll catch you 
    down the 
    D          
    road sweet 
          E
    tumbleweed
    
    
    [Verse 3]
    She sent a 
    postcard 
           E      A E
    from Durango
    A coffee cup from
     Graceland, 
    A         D A
    Tennessee
    She spent a 
                B
    summer in Havana
    A             
    And came back 
                    E
    dancin differently
    
    
    [Chorus]

    If she stays or 
    A  
    flies away to 
    E
    Heaven only knows

    She can take my 
    A  
    heart and 
             E
    keep her wings
    Bm        
    I don’t say 
        A 
    goodbye 
    when it comes 
    E
    time to let 
    her go
         G

    If she stays or
     flies 
    away to Heaven 
    only knows
    She can take my 
    heart and keep 
    her wings
    I don’t say 
    goodbye
     when it comes 
    time
     to let her go

    down 
    the road sweet 
    tumbleweed
    I’ll catch you
     down
     the road sweet
