*Intro: E5 - C#5 - Ab5 - A5 - B5 (x2)


E5                      C#5        Ab5   A5 B5
  I drove through the desert last night
E5                C#5                Ab5   A5 B5
  I carried the weight of our last fight
 E5                      C#5                 Ab5
Elvis singing "Don't be Cruel" and I wonder if you feel it too
      A5                B5
It's like we're going under.
C#5                       F#5                     Ab5
   Somewhere outside the lonely Esmeralda County line,
                    A5                 B5
The question of my heart came to my mind:

        A5        E5
If I go on with you by my side,
       A5   E5       B5             A5
Can it be the way it was when we met?
          E5                     B5
Did you forget all about those golden nights?

E5             C#5              Ab5   A5 B5
  Maybe if thieves stole your heart
E5             C#5           Ab5
  Or maybe we just drifted apart.
     A5       B5
I remember driving 
E5               C#5                   Ab5
  In my daddy's car to the airfield, blanket on the hood, 
 A5                 B5
Backs against the windshield.
C#5                          F#5                           Ab5
   Back then this thing was running on momentum , love and trust.
                   A5            B5
That paradise is buried in the dust.


        A5        E5
If I go on with you by my side,
       A5   E5       B5             A5
Can it be the way it was when we met?
          E5                     B5
Did you forget all about those golden nights?
(The way it was, it was)

F#5                               C#5
   All of our plans are falling through.
F#5                                  B5 A5
   Sometimes a dream , it don't come true.

A5 - E5 - B5 (X2)

    A5     E5
Darling. Darling
                    A5
(If we go on can it be)
       A5   E5      B5               A5
Can it be the way it was when we met?
          E5                     B5
Did you forget all about them golden nights?

        A5        E5
If I go on with you by my side,
       A5   E5      B5
Can it be the way it was?
             A5                E5
My heart is true, girl, it's just you
             B5 
I'm thinking of
       A5              E5
Can it be the way it was?

C#5 - Ab5 - A5 - B5

E5         C#5              Ab5  A5  B5
 (Maybe thieves stole your heart.)
