[Verse 1]
Eb Ab Eb
She said she'd meet me down in Santa Fe
Cm Ab Eb
So we could do the Farolita Walk
Eb Ab Eb
She'd hire a car and we would drive all day
Cm Ab Eb
To Albuquerque or to Window Rock
Cm Ab Eb
Then watch the bonfires burn on Canyon Lane
Bb Cm Ab Eb
As dusk descended and the daylight fade
Cm Ab Eb
But she was held up in the winter rain
Cm Ab Eb
And I was unavoidably delayed
[Verse 2]
Eb Ab Eb
She said she'd tie her waist-length hair in braids
Cm Ab Eb
And wear the sweater that I bought her once
Eb Ab Eb
And we'd make love for several decades
Cm Ab Eb
Then break to have a shower and lunch
Cm Ab Eb
And she'd have me cut her bangs and come
Bb Cm Ab Eb
Down with her to the Indian trading post
Cm Ab Eb
But she heard a different drum
Cm Ab Eb
When I was spirited away by ghosts
[Middle 8]
Gm
I know she loved me
Cm
And I loved her too
Ab
But love will make a puppet
Bb
Out of you
[Verse 3]
Eb Ab Eb
She said she didn't want my money, no
Cm Ab Eb
Despite her personal circumstance, and mine
Eb Ab Eb
And I respected that and spoke as though
Cm Ab Eb
All things were well, but listener I was blind
Cm Ab Eb
I walked right into such a tangled knot
Bb Cm Ab Eb
While she foresaw the trap ahead
Cm Ab Eb
And shared some blessed second thoughts
Cm Ab Eb
And left me gazing at an empty bed
Eb Ab Eb Ab Eb
She said she'd meet me down in Santa Fe
Eb Ab Eb Ab Eb
She said she'd meet me down in Santa Fe
