G
I left Oklahoma drivin' in a Pontiac
                      D
Just about to lose my mind

I was goin' to Arizona, maybe on to California
                             G 
Where the people all live so fine

My baby said I's crazy, my momma called me lazy
                              D
I was gonna show 'em all this time

'Cause you know I ain't no fool an' I don't need no more schoolin'
                            G
I was born to just walk the line


[Chorus]

G
Livin' on Tulsa time
                D
Livin' on Tulsa time

Well you know I've been through it

When I set my watch back to it
                G
Livin' on Tulsa time


[Verse 2]

G
Well there I was in Hollywood, wishin' I was doin' good
                         D
Talkin' on the telephone line

But they don't need me in the movies and nobody sings my songs
                       G
Guess I'm just wastin' time

Well then I got to thinkin', man I'm really sinkin'
                              D
And I really had a flash this time

I had no business leavin' and nobody would be grievin'
                           G
If I went on back to Tulsa time


[Chorus]

G
Livin' on Tulsa time
                D
Livin' on Tulsa time

Gonna set my watch back to it

'Cuz you know I've been through it
                G
Livin' on Tulsa time

G
Livin' on Tulsa time
                D
Livin' on Tulsa time

Gonna set my watch back to it

'Cuz you know I've been through it
                G
Livin' on Tulsa time
