[Chorus 1]
Bm  A   D            G
Way out West with my honey
      Bm
I got all these bags
A
Filled up with money and I'm
Bm       A   D          G
Weighed down look at me honey
      Bm             A
I got all my baggage packed

[Verse 1]
   Bm                D
My mind went out the door
      A              G
When she done let me in
   Bm   A        D    G
We came from the same town
      Bm       A
Now I wanna go home

[Chorus 2]
Bm  A   D            G
Way out West with my honey
      Bm
I got all these bags
A
Filled up with money and I'm
Bm       A   D          G
Weighed down look at me honey
      Bm             A
I got all my baggage packed

[Verse 2]
   Bm       D
In Kansas '58
     A                G
They made a brand new state
          Bm   A   D       G
They went way down wеighed down
              Bm            A
To get what's gleaming undеrground

             Bm               D
And then the fighting came in time
         A                G
Then the flooding and the fire
         Bm      A   D    G
But it's changed now made out
             Bm             A
They drove a spike into the ground


[Chorus 3]
Bm  A   D            G
Way out West with my honey
      Bm
I got all these bags
A
Filled up with money and I'm
Bm       A   D          G
Weighed down look at me honey
      Bm             A
I got all my baggage packed

[Verse 3]
    Bm                D
Her mind went out the door
   A                 G
To leave her next of kin
       Bm   A   D   G
She escaped now westbound
          Bm        A
She don't wanna go home

[Instrumental]
Bm A D G Bm A
Bm A D G Bm A

[Outro]
          Bm    D  G
And now I wanna go home
      Bm    D  A
Now I wanna go home
              Bm    D  G
But she don't wanna go home
