Subject: CRD: Mineral Wells by Tom Russell
Mineral Wells
=============
by: Tom Russell
written by: Tom Russell - Frontera Music
(capo 3rd fret)
Intro:
G (alternate between |320003| and |302003| intro only)
G
She was livin' in a cadillac
G
Bedded down in the back seat
G D
On a back street of the Hollywood hills
D
With a shoebox museum of memories
D G
Old photos and medical bills
G
She'd been a great actress in two dozen movies
G G7 C
Played Shakespeare on the great London stage
C G
Before the three husbands, six kids and bad breaks
G D G
Of fifty-eight odd years of age
G
Him they called fat boy wore grey overalls
G D
And he clocked in at four hundred pounds
D
With a passion for food and film magazines
D G
He'd been a great critic downtown
G
He'd seen all her movies, worshipped her face
G G7 C
Heard her story and took her on in
C G
Though she bore no resemblance to the star he adored
G D G G7
The film's over before real life begins
Chorus:
G7 C
She told him of a fountain of youth
C D
In the hot Texas earth
D C
It'll heal and renew us
C D
It's somewhere west of Fort Worth
D C
And she met Errol Flynn there
C G C
In the Crazy Water Hotel
C Am
And they danced down the street
Am D C
In the moonlight of old Mineral Wells
G (alternate between |320003| and |302003|)
G
So they boarded a greyhound in search of the fountain
G D
Fat boy and the aging film queen
D
Through the Great Painted Desert and all across Texas
D G
Amarillo plain to Abilene
G
They got off in Fort Worth for a fresh cup of coffee
G G7 C
Caught the local to old Mineral Wells
C G
And it dropped them in front of that boarded up palace
G D G
Called the Crazy Water Hotel
G
Disillusioned they found a cheap room off the highway
G D
Drank vodka from a styrofoam cup
D
There'd be no healing return to the past
D G
The fountain of youth had dried up
G
So the critic and the film star held hands and drank vodka
G G7 C
As the great Texas sun rose and fell
C G
And drunk but still dreaming they waltzed down the street
G D G G7
In the moonlight of old Mineral Wells
Repeat Chorus
C Am
They danced down the street
Am D G C G D G
In the moonlight of old Mineral Wells
>From the album The Long Way Around 1997 Hightone Records
Live duet with Katy Moffatt
