JAY AND THE AMERICANS - "TWENTY-FOUR HOURS FROM TULSA Chords

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Dearest, darling, I have to write to say that I [B] won't be home [E] anymore.
Something [A] happened to me while I was driving home and I'm [B] not the same [E] anymore.
Oh, I was only [D] 24 hours [F#] old.
She [D] told me, well, [F#] stay away from her. _
[Bm] _ _ [G] _ _ [A] _ [G] And stopped to rest for [A] a little while.
And that was when I saw her.
As I pulled in outside of the small [G#m] hotel, she [E] was there.
And so [A] I walked up to her.
Asked where I could get something to eat.
[B] And she showed [E] me where.
Oh, I [D] was only 24 [Bm] hours old.
Oh, _ _ [D] only one day away [Bm] from her. _
_ [G] She took me to the [A] cafe _ [G] and she was [A] great.
She said, oh dear. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
[E] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [E] Oh, I [D] was only 24 hours [A#] old.
_ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
[A] _ [G] And I thought you [F#] could dance [A] with her closely.
All of a sudden, I lost control [B] and fell for [E] her charm.
And so [A] I kissed her, caressed her, told her I'd die before I would let [B] her out of [E] my arms.
Oh, [D] I was only 24 [Bm] hours old.
_ _ _ [D] Only one day away [Bm] from her.
_ _ [G] _ _ _
[A] _ _ [G] _ _ _ [A] What can I do?
And I could never, never, never, ever go [D] home again. _ _ _
