       F              G                 C                Am
It was Nineteen-sixty-four, we slept in beds down on the floor 
        F             G                 C
But she really wanted more, she told me so 
       F              G             C              Am
But my new guitar and me, we had so much we had to see 
      F                                G
So, I told her she was free to stay or go

'Cause I was just a rambling boy, music was my marvelous toy 
        F                 G             C
I could play with so much joy at twenty-one
        F               G             C              Am
She was really my first love, she was wild, a flying dove 
        F                              G
But her needing flew above and she was gone

Yes, she was gone while Tom and I rode hobo trains 
        Em                                  F
And the journey she went on was through her veins 
                                      C           Am
Needing time, needing space, she went to an empty place 
      F           C                G
Empty eyes, empty face, no trace behind 
        F               G                  C     Am  Dm7  G
Because leaving was the first thing on her mind

There was Woody, there was Buddy, there was Ochs, and there was Huddie 
           F               G            C
There were chorus songs to study and to learn 
        F                G                C                 Am
Would I get it right, or wing it, could I write it down and sing it? 
          F                                 G 
Would the muse descend and bring it, then return?

Could I be the next Hoyt Axton, could I really sing Tom Paxton
        F              G              C
With my new guitar all waxed I was so keen 
      F             G              C                Am
I set out to find a way to live my life from day to day 
      F                          G 
But I knew I had to stay forever clean

Yes, leaving was her pleasure and she left us all to measure 
         F            G                C
How each morning is a treasure without price 
          F               G             C                Am
Now she's gone beyond the dawn, all her future days stillborn 
      F                               G
And I wonder who else mourns her sacrifice
