C5                          G5
   Today I'm livin' like a rich man's son
Bb5                          F5
   Tomorrow morning I could be a bum. 
C5                            G5
   It doesn't matter which direction though.
Bb5                        F5
   I know a woman in New Mexico


Chorus:

   
 D5              G5     D5        G5
   Worst comes to worst, I'll get along.
 D5            G5                D5        G5
   I don't know how but sometimes I can be strong


   
C5                         G5
   And if I don't have a car I'll hitch.
Bb5                            F5
   I got a thumb and she's a son of a bitch.
C5                            G5
   I'll do my writing on my road guitar
Bb5                          F5
   And make a livin' at a piano bar

(Chorus)

Bridge:

 Bb5                F5
   Lightning and thunder
    C5                                G5
   Flashed across the roads we drove upon
 Bb5                                F5
   Oh, but it's clear skies we're under
    C5                   G5
   When I am together, when I sing the song

(Verse Instrumental)
(Chorus)

Oh, fun ain't easy if it ain't free
Too many people got a hold on me
But I know something that they don't know
I know a woman in New Mexico

(Repeat Chorus 3x)
