INTRO:
G C G C G D G C G
G C G C
Maria, you're still wild and restless
G C D
And I can just see ya ridin' in a rodeo
G C G C
You might even make it down to Texas
G D G C G
Or you might head out west to New Mexico
G C G C
So pack up all of your belongings
G C D
A pick-up will take you where you wanna go
G C G C
You can ride out when you hear mountains calling
G D G C G
Out to Canada or the canyons of Colorado
D C G C G
New York City was always your home
D C G
But in your heart you know you were born to roam
B7 C
And you're gonna leave as soon as you get the money
G D G C G
After you sell everything you own
GUITAR SOLO:
G C G C G C D D
G C G C G D G C G
G C G C
Maria, is loneliness a virtue
G C D
Or does it steal you blind and leave you split apart
G C G C
Maria, can you give me an answer
G D G C G
Are the songs we sing worth the broken heart
G C G C
The highway has always been your lover
G C D
And someday you may know his name
G C G C
Wherever you stay it wouldn't really matter
G D G C G
'Cause all those cities start to look the same
D C G C G
Some folks will try to take your heart away
D C G
And just when you think you've really got it made
B7 C
You wake up and find madness in the morning
G D G C G
But damn the pain and damn those restless days
G D G
Damn the pain and damn those restless days
