INTRO G C/G G
G C/G G
IN A MEXICAN RESTAURANT IN TAOS, NEW MEXICO
G D
SAT A DARK HAIRED LADY, A SIGHT FOR SORE EYES
G C/G G
I DROVE IN ON FRIDAY, I WAS COLD AND I WAS LONESOME
G D G
SNOW WAS A FALLIN FROM COLD STEEL GREY SKIES
I SHOOK OFF THAT COLD AND SAT AT A TABLE
I WAS LOST ON THE ROAD AND ALL BUT DONE IN
I LOOKED PAST THE TOURIST, PAST THE JEWELRY AND THE TURQUOISE
DOWN IN HER BROWN EYES, I SLIPPED AND FELL IN
G
AND I SAID
C/G G
HEY SENORITA, CAN I BUY YOU SOME COFFEE
D G
SING YOU A LOVE SONG, GAZE IN YOUR EYES
C/G G
BE HERE TOMORROW, BUT I CAN'T PROMISE SUNDAY
D C/G G
IT'S SO WARM BESIDE YOU AND SO COLD, SO COLD OUTSIDE
IT'S A DANCE CROSS THE DANCE FLOOR TO A SCRATCHY OLD RECORD
BOB WILLS IS SINGING OLD FADED LOVE
WE DANCE AND WE DANCED, TILL THE NIGHT WAS FORSAKEN
IN THE FIRST LIGHT OF MORNING, BOTH FELL IN LOVE
CHORUS
IT'S DOWN FROM THE MOUNTAINS, CROSS THE VALLEYS AND MESAS
IT'S A WORN OUT OLD ENDING TO A WORN OUT OLD LINE
THERE'S A 1000 MILES OF HIGHWAY BEFORE ME
MY HEART RETURNS TO HER TIME AFTER TIME
CHORUS
