C5                      D5             F5
You said that you'd be waiting for me here in Santa Fe
C5                    D5           F5
With hotel rooms and TV's booming loud every night and day
C5                 D5            F5
And all I have to do is just be careful what I say
C5                 D5               F5
And do and what I put us through


D5        F5                C5
Colorado, lines were down, Des Moines's an underwater town
D5                 F5                 C5
Don't know what it is, I thought I'd find out here
D5                  F5           C5
It's moving forward as it must, 95 and blowing dust
D5               F5           C5                             D5
Sitting here and missing us, it couldn't be more clear


You said that you'd be waiting for me here in Santa Fe
With dreams and postponements along the way
Conditioned by the outstretched miles and high desert air
Thinking I might find you there

Holding you in my dreams
Ricocheting back and forth between my two extremes
Of light and dark and all the in betweens
All of us know too well exactly what that means

Will you still be here waiting for me here in Santa Fe?
With arms and obligations and tears along the way
And all I have to do is revel in here everyday
     C5           D5        F5
Then do it again tomorrow, 
C5           D5       F5
do it again tomorrow
C5           D5       F5             C5
Do it again tomorrow in some other place
