G                          E        A
They finally got the nerve to tell me
C                    D               G
You’re no longer wanted hangin' around
              E               A
I knew all along it would-a happened
                                               D                             
So there this-a new place, darlin', that I found.

[Chorus:]

         G                 E             A
And it's just on the outskirts of somewhere
C                   D            G
The only traffic is downward bound
       G                       E           A
It's alright, to try our love 'cause I've been so far out
         C                      D                    G
That the sun will go down between my house and town.

G                          E        A
Please don't feel sorry darlin', 'cause you hurt me
C                    D               G
Love just moved away for your, your little man
              E               A
I could feel this bad, bad day a-comin'
                                               D 
So there's this new place darlin', that I plan.

[Chorus:]

         G                 E             A
And it's just on the outskirts of somewhere
C                   D            G
The only traffic is downward bound
       G                       E           A
It's alright, to try our love 'cause I've been so far out
         C                      D                    G
That the sun will go down between my house and town.
