  • Em A D G
    I'd like a one-way ticket home, ticket home
    Em A D D
    Where I can watch television, talk on the telephone
    Em A D
    But every town I wander there's a billboard on a throne
    A7
    Ticket home
    D
    I want a ticket home
    Em A D G
    Does anybody know my name, or recognize my face
    Em A D G
    I must have come from somewhere, but I can't recall the place
    Em A D G
    they dropped me at the matinee, they left without a trace
    A7
    Ticket home
    D
    I want a ticket home
    G D
    Elvis Presley is the king, I was at his crowning
    E G A
    My life just flashed before my eyes, I must be drowning
    Seems like only yesterday I climbed aboard the plane
    Raping distance in the skies, while diving in champagne
    I would be in exile now, but everywhere's the same
    Ticket home
    I want a ticket home
    Elvis Presley is the king, I was at his crowning
    My life just flashed before my eyes, I must be drowning
    Seems like only yesterday I climbed aboard the plane
    Raping distance in the sky, while diving in champagne
    I would be in exile now, but everywhere's the same
    Ticket home
    I want a ticket home
