          G5                           
There was a man on the road 'bout an hour ago 
         A5 
and he was lookin for a ride to New Mexico 
          C5                           G5 
well he was drivin' by, way too fast to know. 


           G5 
Well then we got to the place on a high-speed chase 
          A5 
there was a girlie in the corner with a plastic face 
C5                         G5 
and then she disappeared, without a trace. I said without a trace. 


             G5 
Well now we're kickin' back and we're sippin' beers 
        A5 
there's a man tellin' stories 'bout his inner fears 
C5                           G5 
we was all choked up and too close to tears 


           G5 
Well then we moved on up to some margaritas 
  A5 
I started makin' faces at the senioritas 
C5                                       G5 
playin' drinkin games, but they were all too drunk to beat us 


           G5 
well now my, car broke down 'bout an hour ago 
           A5 
and we were, headed on down to New Mexixco 
           C5                           G5 
and well we, we did not see, the gas was low 


                      G5 
Hey hey, I said the gas was low, the gas was low  
            A5 
the gas was low, the gas was low  
            C5 
the gas was low, the gas was low  
                G5                                  G5 G5 A5 A5 C5 C5 G5 G5 
hey the gas was low, hey hey, la la la la la la lala  


G5 
  We got back to the party 
      A5 
we've been on the road, were kind of dirty 
C5 
  I seen this girl, I said youre mighty purdy 


        G5 
Well I, I said hello, about an hour ago 
         A5 
we were, headed on down to the big grass show  
      C5 
well, we did not see, the gas was low...Chorus 
         G5 
About an hour, about an hour ago 
         A5 
about an hour, about an hour ago 
         C5 
about an hour, about an hour ago
