G
I’m leavin’ Stephenville

I’m packed up and I’m ready
          Em
Checking out of my hotel

and I’m always in a hurry
       Am                    C
To get home at the end of a long weekend

G
When I hit that interstate

I’m south bound, boys, and truckin’
           Em
Tell them girls they’ll have to wait

they should know it’s all or nothin’
            Am
When you’re living on the road
                  C                       G
there’s always a few you know That never leave

Am                C
But it’s Sunday afternoon
     Am                   C
As I pass the city limits sign
      Am        C
Gotta get home soon,
    Am    C    D       
So until next time

G
I’m leavin’ Stephenville

and I’m headed one direction
          Em
But I’ll never make it there

on this single tank unless
          Am
I fill it up once again 
       C                             G
and I pray that the wind stays at my back

Instrumental 

G
I’m leavin’ Stephenville

and I’m headed straight to Austin
       Em
After twelve days on the run

I just can’t wait to get lost
          Am
In my own bed, my own sheets, 
         C                      G
man, I haven’t gotten sleep in so long

 Am                C
But it’s Sunday afternoon
      Am                   C
As I trace that old white line
      Am        C
Gotta get home soon,
    Am    C    D
So until next time

 G
I’m leavin’ Stephenville
 Em
I’m leavin’ Stephenville
 Am                    C
Oh, I’ll be back, but until then,
      G
I’m leavin’ Stephenville
