[D]
Dustland fairy tale beginning with just another white [A] trash [G] county kiss.
[B] Sixty-one, long brown [Bm] hair and foolish [D] eyes.
He looked just like you'd want him to, some [A] kind of slick chrome [G] American prince.
[A] Blue jean [Bm] serenade, moon river, [D] what'd [G] you do to me?
[E] I don't believe you.

[G] She was looking for a [A] nightgown.

He's [F#m] getting ready for the [G] showdown.
I [F#m] saw the minute [F#] that I turned [Bm] away.
I [A] got my money on a bond [D] tonight.
The change came in disguise of revelation, set his soul on fire.
She said she always knew he'd come around.
And the decades disappear like [Bm] sinking ships, but we persevere.
God [D] gives us hope, but we [Bm] still fear, [G] but we [D] don't know.
The mind of [Bm] poison, castles in the sky, sit [G] stranded, [G] vandalized.
[E] With [G#] drawbridges closing.
[A] Saw Cinderella in a [Bm] party dress.
She was looking for a [A] nightgown.
I saw the devil wrapping up [D] his hand.
He's getting ready for the [G] showdown.
I [D] saw the ending [F#] when they [Bm] burned the page.
I [A] took my money and I [D] ran away.
[F#m] Straight to the valley of a [A] great divide.
[E] Out where the trees [D] fall high.
[A] Out where the [G] wind don't blow.
[C#m] Out near the cliff [Bm] girls die.
[A] When the sky [D] won't snow.
Out near the [G] mountains deep.
[A] Out near the [G] field don't grow.
[A] Out near the [Bm] bell don't ring.
[B]
Out near the [Em] bonfire ring.
[G]
Out where the good [A] girls die.
I've seen the relatives who go [Bm] to sleep.
It's such a bitter form of [A] refuge.
I don't see no kingdom under [D] siege.
And everybody [G] needs you.
[D] Is there still magic [A#] in the [Bm] midnight sun?
Or [A] did you leave it back in [D] 61?
In the case of a young [G] man's eyes.
[A] Out where the dreams [D] all hide.
[A] [G]

[Bm] [A]
