One Night Stand

INTRO: G F C

#1.
G
Heard the call and I packed it all and
    F            C
I'm on the road again.
   G                             F
If you can help to ease my load, I will
        C
be your friend.
G       Am
But the morning brings the sunlight and
    Em                 Bb
the sunlight brings my train.
F     C       Em     Am        G      F
So, I say goodbye to New York, I'm an L.A.
     C
man again.

CHORUS:
          F                 C
One night stand in New York City, lights
    F                        C
are bright and the girls are pretty.
         Am          G        F    Em Dm
Held her heart and I held her hand.........
C        F     C     Eb        C     Em F
goodbye, lady, I'm a one night stand.

G                  F               C
Oklahoma, Arizona, wish I knew for sure.
G
Came to town and I stood my ground, that's
F                C
what I came here for.
Em          Am
But there's voices in the distance and they're
Em              Bb   F
calling me back home-ome.
        C       G      Am                F
I'll be leaving in the morning, guess my fate
   Dm7    C
is not my own.

CHORUS:
          F                 C
One night stand in New York City, lights
    F                        C
are bright and the girls are pretty.
         Am          G        F    Em Dm
Held her heart and I held her hand.........
C        F     C     Eb        C     Em F
goodbye, lady, I'm a one night stand.

G                           F              C
Gypsy queens and magazines, livin' off the land.
G                                    F
Don't make ties and don't tell lies, do the best
    C
you can.
Em     Am                              Em
But of every place I've been to and of everything
     Bb    F      C         Em   Am
I've seen, I feel lonesome among strangers,
G      F             C
I feel naked without strings.

CHORUS:
          F                 C
One night stand in New York City, lights
    F                        C
are bright and the girls are pretty.
         Am          G        F    Em Dm
Held her heart and I held her hand.........
C        F     C     Eb        C
goodbye, lady, I'm a one night stand.
