[Verse]

D
I used to ride a little motor bike
G
One block down, two more to the right
Em7
Out through a cul-de-sac
Em7                 A7
Into open space and time

[Verse]
D
And I had a lot of friends around here
G                                         D
They’ve all moved on, all but disappeared
Em7                                      A7
Taken on identities in another place and time

[Chorus]
Bm                             D
I think it may be time to make a move
Em7                 D
Tired of this town, tired of this groove
Em7                                        A7    D
I’ve been contemplatin’ movin’ on down the line
G                        D
Asheville, Nashville, Memphis, Tennessee
Em7                       D
Don’t make no difference, all the same to me
D        Em7
We’ll be gone by Christmas
Em7                      A7
Honey don’t you move too slow
D          G     Em  A    D
‘Cause I’m on my way back home
D D6 G A7 D G

[Verse]
D
I used to stay out almost every night
G
Outskirts of town, pale moonlight
Em7                                     A7
Finding my identity in another space and time

[Verse]
D
Now I drive around my high school town
G
Eyes wide open, good look around
Em7                                              A7
The place is like a skeleton without a reason or rhyme

[Chorus]
G                              D
I think it may be time to make a move
Em7                 D
Tired of this town, tired of this groove
Em7                                        A7    D
I’ve been contemplatin’ movin’ on down the line
G                        D
Mansfield, Macon, Washington DC
Em7                       D
Don’t make no difference, all the same to me
D        Em7
We’ll be gone by Christmas
Em7                      A7
Honey don’t you move too slow
D          G     Em  A    D
‘Cause I’m on my way back home
D D6 G A7 D G

[Bridge]
G                     A
We got this wide open free country
G                        D
Thousands of miles from sea to sea
Em7                              A7
Don’t you want to see that other sea with me
G D Em7 D Em7 A D

[Chorus]
G                             D
I think it may be time to make a move
Em7                 D
Tired of this town, tired of this groove
Em7                                        A7    D
I’ve been contemplatin’ movin’ on down the line
G                  D
Austin, Boston, Waimea Bay
Em7                       D
Come on let’s get with it, gotta find a way
D        Em7
We’ll be gone by Christmas
Em7                  A7
I can’t wait another day

[Otro]
D          G     Em7      A    D
‘Cause I’m going home to stay
D D6 G A7 D G
D       G A7 D G
to stay
