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