G                                       
Hey mister, what time does the next bus leave?
       G                          D
I'm a party of one out of Tennessee
  G                      
I won't be back for a long, long while
          G                           D       G
Give me eighty-five dollars worth of highway mile

        C
I ain't got no luggage as you can see
        G                  D 
Just a whole lot of heavy memories
      G                       
I was finally up for just a-settling down
                               D        G
When I found out she'd been a-foolin' around

[Chorus]
              C
Ah, you can send me north, you can send me south
 G                
Just don't send me past my house
       G                                      C
Don't ask me where I'm goin', 'cause I don't care
          G                          D        G
I want a ticket that'll take me anywhere but here
   G                           D        G
A ticket that'll take me anywhere but here

G  D

[Verse 2]
          G               
Well, I hear it's cold up in Saskatoon
       G                       D
But it couldn't be colder than our bedroom
      G                        
The skies are blue down in Alabam'
         G                    D     G
But they won't be any bluer than I am

Anywhere but Here

[Chorus]
G             C
Ah, you can send me north, you can send me south
 G                  D       G
Just don't send me past my house
                         D          G        C
Don't ask me where I'm going, cause I don't care
          G                          D        G
I want a ticket that'll take me anywhere but here
                              D        G
A ticket that'll take me anywhere but here

[Solo]
G 

[Chorus]
G             C
Ah, you can send me north, you can send me south
 G                  D       G
Just don't send me past my house
                         D          G        C
Don't ask me where I'm going, cause I don't care
          G                          D        G
I want a ticket that'll take me anywhere but here
                              D        G
A ticket that'll take me anywhere but here
