Cm        G#
I went to Paris (Texas)
       D#              G#
With a suitcase in my hand
Cm       G#
I had to leave
          D#              G#
Knew they wouldn't understand

Chorus:
          Fm
When you know, you know
          Cm
When you know, you know
      D#                  G#
It's time, it's time to go
          Fm
When you know, you know
          D#
Then the more you know
      G#
It's time to go

I took a trip to Spain
Just a notebook in my hand
Then I went to see some friends of mine
Down in Florence, Alabama

Chorus:
When you know, you know
When you know, you know
It's time, it's time to go
When you know, you know
That it's time to leave
Like the summer breeze

     A#               G#
When everyone star's bright
 Cm               A#
Brighter than you are
      G#
It's time to go
     A#                  G#
And you're the only one left
 Cm
Dancin' while they're on the floor
        G#
Time to go

I flew back home
It seems everything's the same (Venice, California)
Except that you weren't home
“Hello,” I call to no one (But)

Chorus:
When you're home, you're home (Venice, California)
When you're home, you're home (Venice, California)
When you're home, when you're alone
When you're right, you're right
When you're right, you're right
Even when you're wrong
