[G#m] [A] [B] [E]
I drove through the [C#m] desert last [G#m] night I [A] [B]
[E] carried the [C#m] weight of our last [G#m] fight
Elvis [A] [B]
[E] singing don't be [C#m] cruel and I wonder [G#m] if you feel it too
It's [A] like we're [B] going [C#m] under
Somewhere outside [F#m] the lonely Esmeralda [G#m] County line
The question of [A] my heart came to [B] my mind if I [A] go [E] with you
Can [A] it be [E] the way [B] it [A] was when we met?
Did you [E] forget all about those [B] golden nights?
[E] Maybe [C#m] a thief stole your [G#m] heart
[A] [B]
[E] Or maybe we [B] just [C#m] drifted apart
[A] [B]
[E] In my [C#m] daddy's car up to the [G#m] airfield
Blanket on the hood, [A] backs against [B] the [C#m] windshield
Back then this thing [F#m] was running on momentum, [G#m] love and trust
That paradise [A] is buried [B] in dust
If [A] I go on [E] with you
Can [A] it be [E] the way [B] it [A] was when we met?
Did you [E] forget all about [B] those golden nights?
[F#m] All of our plans are [C#m] falling through
[G#m]
[F#m] Sometimes a dream it don't [B] come [A] true
