[Verse 1]
A Asus A A7 D
I-95 We saw the heat rise off the road

beneath an unforgiving sky

She heaved a sigh
A7 D
I feel the sunlight right between thighs
Dm Asus2
Pull over, I'm on fire

[Verse 2]
A Asus A
Carolina line
A7 D
She rolled the window down and turned
Dm A Asus
the rad-i=o up loud and sang
A Asus A
A tall stand of pines
A7 D
We counted waves of red and yellow signs
Dm7 Asus2
to try and stay awake
[Chorus]
F#m7 Bsus2
She made the moon rise
F#m7 C# D
She turned her blue eyes a-way when I
E Asus2 E
tried to find some kind of sign of surrender
F#m7 Bsus2
She made the moss weep
F#m7 C# D
I tried with all my strength but I
E A D E Dmaj7 E
never could divine her ghost
[Verse 3]
A Asus A
Parked in the shade
A7 D
We saw a smuggler land and throw a load
Dm A Asus
of bales out on the glades
A Asus A
We lay in wait
A7 D Em
But late in the day the federal agents came
F G Asus2
and they hauled our little gold mine away
[Chorus]
F#m7 Bsus2
She made the moon rise
F#m7 C# D
She turned her blue eyes a-way when I
E Asus2 E
tried to find some kind of sign of surrender
F#m7 Bsus2
She made the moss weep
F#m7 C# D
I tried with all my strength but I
E A D E Dmaj7 E
never could divine her ghost
[Verse 4]
A Asus A
Lost in the keys
A7 D
We fell asleep on some old silent picture
Dm A Asus
idol's private beach
A Asus A
Then while I dreamed
A7 D
She brushed the sand from both her suntanned
Dm7 Asus2
knees and she left me to the sea.
[Chorus]
F#m7 Bsus2
She made the moon rise
F#m7 C# D
She turned her blue eyes a-way when I
E Asus2 E
tried to find some kind of sign of surrender
F#m Bsus2
She7 made the moss weep
F#m7 C# D
I tried with all my strength but I
E A D E F#m7
never could divine her ghost
