[C] [A] Going back to the desert Arizona's sundry [Am] down
[A]
And the [D] seas got my troubles [G] Tired of [C] this [A] scuffling round
[Dm] [G] Cause [E] living in this city [D] There ain't [G] no [D] peace [A] around
[G] [C] [A]
So a man I call [G] now [A]
Holding [G] out his [Am] hand
[D] He got no home on no Monday This [Ab] ain't [A] how it's planned
Running [E] here in this dead city [D]
Doing [G] the [A] best he can
[Em] [C] [A]
Going back to the canyons Fishing a mountain [Ab] stream
[Am]
[Ab] Gonna [C] start with a new [F] [Gb] life Cut loose from [A] all I've been
[E] Get away from this city [D] Where the police [G] [A] are in stream

[A] [Em] [A]
They flood on [D] the [C] sidewalk [A] Another baby killed today
Just
[D] take it over And trust I'll be [A] here to stay
All [E] this time in this city [Gbm] Gonna [G] take my [A] life away
Going back to the campground I'll be [Am] [C] walking along
[A]
[D] Let the [G] earth remember [D] that Some things [Ab] remain [A] strong
[E] Get away from this city [D] When they come [C] a [A]-wrapping round
