VERSE 1
Am                      F          
Give me a ticket for an aeroplane,
G                          D          
Ain't got time to take the fast train
Am                    F                 
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home,
   E7                   Am      
My baby just wrote me a letter.

Got to get back to my baby again

My baby just wrote me a letter.

Listen mister can't you see
