[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C
Out in Tucson there’s a girl
Am
She didn’t get the best of me
F
And she ain’t my whole world
C
But I think about her from time to time
Am7
When Percy’s calm as the desert floor
F
Or Tennessee gets dry
Dm7 F
I don’t know what she’s up to anymore
[Verse 2]
C
But out in Tucson there’s a memory
Am
Of two long nights of hotel love
F
Ice melting in our drinks
C
The sun was shinin’, the shades were drawn
Am7
The moment was amazing
F
But on Monday we moved on
Dm7 F
Some things just ain’t more than what they are
[Chorus]
G F
I know she ain’t the one that got away
G F
I’m not the one for her and that’s ok
G Am F
But those Arizona stars burn bright and never fade
C
Out in Tucson
[Verse 3]
C
Just a thousand miles of dusty roads
Am7 F
But it ain’t worth the time to get there that’s why I never go
C
Out to Tucson for one more kiss
Am7
We got it right the first time
F
It’s just nice to reminisce
[Chorus]
G F
I know she ain’t the one that got away
G F
I’m not the one for her and that’s ok
G Am F
But those Arizona stars burn bright and never fade
C
Out in Tucson
[Guitar Solo]
C Am F
[Bridge]
Dm F
Some things just ain’t more than what they are
[Chorus]
G F
And I know she ain’t the one that got away
G F
I’m not the one for her and that’s ok
G Am C F
But that picture of her in my mind will never fade
C
Out in Tucson
[Outro]
C
Out in Tucson
