I transcribed this over the week-end. The version you have is not
complete and credited to David Alan Coe, who covered the original by
David Loggins. I added the bridge part and corrected the lyrics.
I've been doing this song in my regular set for years and it always
gets a great response. Ê Robert Key Cayucos CA

D G
Please come to Boston for the springtime
D G
I'm staying here with some friends and they've got lots of room
A D
You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk
Bm A
By a cafe were I hope to be working soon
D
Please come to Boston
A
She said No,
D
you come home to me.
Chorus
D A D
She said Ramblin boy, won't ya settle down?
D A D
Boston (Denver-L.A.) ain't your kinda town
D G
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
A G D
I'm the number one fan of a man from Tennessee
Verse 2
Please come to Denver with the snow fall
We'll move up into the mountains so far that we can't be found
Throw "I love you" echoes down the canyon
And we'll lie awake at night till they come back around
Please come to Denver
She said no
Bridge
Bm
Now this drifters world goes round and round
A D
And I doubt it's ever gonna stop
Bm
But of all the dreams I've lost or found
A D
And all that I aint got
A
I still lean to
G
someone I can sing to
Verse 3
Please come to L.A., to live forever
The California life alone is just too hard to build
I live in a house that looks out over the ocean
And they're some stars that fell from the sky livin' up on the hill
Please come to LA
She just said no
Boy, won't you come home to me
