A                         Bm
Think I'll pack it in and buy a pick-up
E                 A
Take it down to L.A.
                        Bm
Find a place to call my own and try to fix up.
E                  A
Start a brand new day.

     A                          Bm
The woman I'm thinking of, she loved me all up
E                  A
But I'm so down today
She's so fine, she's in my mind.
Bm               E Esus4
I hear her calling.

Chorus:
A                   Bm
See the lonely boy, out on the weekend
E                  A
Trying to make it pay.
                         Bm
Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and
E               A
Can't begin to say.

She got pictures on the wall, they make me look up
From her big brass bed
Now I'm running down the road trying to stay up
Somewhere in her head

The woman I'm thinking of, she loved me all up
But I'm so down today
She's so fine, she's in my mind
I hear her calling

Chorus:
See the lonely boy out on the weekend
Trying to make it pay
Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and
Can't begin to say
Oh
