Intro: Am  G  F  C  G  F  C 
  
         G                Am 
People expect you to fall 
             F             C 
You hit that same old wall 
             G                   Am   F  C 
Really, they don't wanna help at all 
                      G           Am 
They talk behind your back today 
            F             C 
Shake their heads and say 
               G                        Am                  F 
"Gee, I always knew that the girl would come to no good, anyway" 
  
  
Pre-Chorus 
              G              Am              F   C 
Gonna pack my bags and go to Detroit or Buffalo 
                    G                     Am              F 
If anybody wants to know where, you don't know, you don't know

C         G                  Am          F  C 
God knows everybody's gotta go sometime 
                   G                       Am          F  C 
And I'm taking the train to the end of the line, yeah 
             G               C     G  C 
Missing that boy a mile at a time 
  
  
               G                Am 
I haven't been too well myself 
               F             C 
Too much time upon the shelf 
                G                   Am      F   C 
Saying that I don't need help, when I do, I do 
                      G             Am 
But I think I'm gonna be just fine 
                    F            C 
A lot of friends, a little wine 
            G                  Am                F 
Still I'm wishing that I could see you again sometime 
  
  
Pre-Chorus 
                 G           Am                  F   C 
I'm gonna pack my bags and go to Detroit or Buffalo 
                        G                     Am              F 
But if anybody wants to know where, you don't know, you don't know

Instrumental: Am  F  C  G  Am  F  C 
  
  
                  G             Am 
It's hard to open up that door 
                         F             C 
Like you've done so many times before 
              G                    Am         F    C 
Sometimes you think you just can't do this anymore 
                  G             Am 
Take a chance and take a train 
             F            C 
Out into the pouring rain 
                 G             Am               F 
When all you got there is your suitcase full of pain 
  
  
Pre-Chorus 
                G            Am                  F   C 
I'm gonna pack my bags and go to Detroit or Buffalo
