Massachusetts

Massachusetts is a song by the Bee Gees, written by Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. It was one of the groups biggest hits, released in 1967. The song was written during a tour of the United States, at a time when the Gibbs longed to return to England, reflecting a sentiment of homesickness. Interestingly, none of the Gibb brothers had visited the state of Massachusetts prior to writing the song.

 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 down 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 down in Massachusetts
                 G        D7               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                    G 
And Massachusetts is one place I have ... seen
                   (break)

  G         Am      C     G         Am      C     G 
(I will remember Massachusetts)
                      I will remember Massachusetts
 G         Am      C     G         Am      C     G 
(I will remember Massachusetts)
                      I will remember Massachusetts
