Key of G
INTRO: G C G C
I G walked her to the plane in Phoenix, I said, C "Say hello to your
mama." G She couldn't even look me in the D eye
I G drove out to the desert C just like nothing G happened
But somewhere in the darkness I D heard her say good G bye
Chorus
Now C I hear voices D in the wind sayin' G she
ain't coming back to me
I C look for guidance D in the sky but the Em stars
have all gone out tonight D
I C fell like the love of my D life is dying
C Even the man in the moon is crying.
G C G C
I'm burning up this blacktop, heading down to Auston
I wonder if she misses me tonight
I wish that I could tell her, how much I love her
And I wish this damned ol' thunderbird could fly.
