saved.
[D] [A]
[F#]
[A] They packed up [G#] the car and drove to [D] the desert [C#m] and New [B] York's down home.
[A] She [G#m] got a job [F#m] in a bank and [D] he got drunk one [C#m] night and threw a [B] cherry hurt while [C#m] she was [D] sleeping.
[A] [D]
Now she's staring out the [A]
window [F#] getting [A] pulled.

where [F#m] he'd go but [D] he was hardly [A]

So [D] they packed the car [C#m] and moved [B] in.
[Bm]
[A] He'd pick up [E] and start [F#m] again.
[D] They'd fall [C#m] apart and start [F#] again.
[A] Lose a [E] job and start [F#m] again.
[D] Get bruised up [A]

Now [D] she's staring out [C#m] the window [B] getting old.
