He said, "Please come to Boston for the springtime
    G                                              C
I'm staying here with some friends and they've got lots of room
D                                  G
You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk
     Em                D     C
By a cafe where I hope to be working soon

G
Please come to Boston"
        D
I said "No
                            G
Boy, would you come home to me."

                                    D         G
I said, "Rambling boy, why don't ya settle down?
                  D       G
Boston ain't your kind of town
                                                C
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
        Am                  D                 G
I'm the number one fan of a man from Tennessee

                                           C
He said, "Please come to Denver, where the snow falls
      G                                     C
We'll move up into the mountains so far, we can't be found
    D                                     G
And throw "I love you" echoes down on the canyon
         Em                   D             C
And then lie awake at night until they come back around

G
Please come to Denver
             D
I just said "No
                            G
Boy, won't you come home to me."

                                         D         G
And I said, "Rambling boy, why don't you settle down?
                  D       G
Denver ain't your kind of town
                                                C
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
        Am                  D                 G
I'm the number one fan of a man from Tennessee

G  C  G
 
         Em                    D
Now that drifter's world goes 'round and 'round,
      C             D          G
And I doubt if it's ever gonna stop
       Em                  D
But of all the dreams he's lost or found
    C
And all that I ain't got
               Am
He still needs to lean into
                D
Somebody he can sing to

          G                              C
He said, "Please come to L.A. to live forever
    G                                 C
The California life alone is just too hard to bear
  D                                       G
I live in a house that looks out over the ocean
                 Em                              D              C
And there's some stars that fell from the sky, living up on the hill

G
Please come to L.A."
             D
I just said "No
                            G
Boy, won't you come home to me."

                                         D         G
And I said, "Rambling boy, why don't you settle down?
                   D       G
L.A. can't be your kind of town
                                                C
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
        Am                  D                 G
I'm the number one fan of a man from Tennessee
        Am         G/B        C                 G     C
I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee
