              Intro: G 
 
            Am       C    G  
Feel, I'm going back, to Massachusetts  
                 Am    C       G  
Something's, telling me, I must go home  
                                     C  
And the lights, all went out, in Massachusetts  
      G          D              G   D7  
The day I left, her standing on her own  
G               Am       C       G  
Try, to hitch a ride, to San Francisco  
             Am        C     G     
Gotta do the things, I wanna do  
                                      C  
And the lights, all went out, in Massachusetts  
                G        D               G   D7  
They brought me back, to see my way with you  
G               Am       C    G  
Talk, about the life, in Massachusetts  
                 Am      C      G    
Speak, about the people, I have seen  
                                      C   
And the lights, all went out, in Massachusetts  
     G            D                 G   
And Massachusetts, is one place, I have seen  
         Am      C    G          
I will remember, Massachusetts 
         Am      C    G          
I will remember, Massachusetts 
         Am      C    G          
I will remember, Massachusetts  
         Am      C    G          
I will remember, Massachusetts...
