Twenty Four Hours From Tulsa chords
G
GDearest, darlin', I had to write to say that I won't be A7home anyDmore
'cause Gsomething, happened, to me while I was drivin' home
And I'm not the A7same anyDmore
Oh, I was Conly twenty four hours from AmTulsa
Ah, Conly one day away from your Amarms
I Fsaw a welcoming Glight, and Fstopped to rest for the Gnight
And that is when I Gsaw her, as I, pulled in outside of the small A7motel, she was 
Dthere
And so I Gwalked up, to her, asked where I could get something to eat,
And she A7showed me Dwhere.
Oh, I was Conly, twenty four hours from AmTulsa
Ah, Conly, one day away from your Amarms
She Ftook me to the Gcafé, I Fasked her if she would Gstay, she said "OK"
Oh, I was Conly, twenty four hours from AmTulsa
Ah, Conly, one day away from your Amarms
The Fjukebox started to Gplay, and Fnight time turned into Gday, as we were dancin'
GClosely, all of a sudden I lost control as I A7held her Dcharms
And I Gcaressed her, kissed her, told her I'd die
Before I would let her A7out of my Darms
Oh, I was Conly, twenty four hours from AmTulsa
Ah, Conly, one day away from your Amarms
I Fhate to do this to Gyou, but FI love somebody Gnew, what can I do?
And I can Gnever, G7never, never---go Chome again
