Intro Organ an then:  E  D/F# A  X4

                   E   D/F#  A 
I know she's a tracker,
                      E   D/F#  A  
any style that would back her 
E                   E   D/F#  A    
They say she's a chooser 
                   E   D/F# 
but I just can't refuse her
A  
She was just there, but then she can't be here no more

E   B      D       E     
And as my mind unwheels 
             B         D       E   
I feel the freeze down in my knees 
     B      D         E   F#7
But just before she leaves, she receives

Intro X2 

                         E   D/F#  A              
She's been down in the dunes 
                          E   D/F#  A
and she's dealt with the goons 
        E              E   D/F#  A 
Now she drinks from a bitter cup, 
                          E   D/F#  
I'm trying to get her to give it up 
A 
She was just here, I fear she can't be there no
more

E   B      D       E     
And as my mind unwheels 
             B         D       E   
I feel the freeze down in my knees 
     B      D         E   F#7
But just before she leaves, she receives

Abm            
It's long, long when she's gone
C#m  
I get weary holding on 
A 
Now I'm coldly fading fast  
B7                                       E
I don't think I'm gonna last very much longer

Intro and Solo: E

                          E   D/F#  A  
"She's stoned" said the Swede, 
                     E   D/F#  A
and the moon calf agreed   
       E              E   D/F#  A
But like a viper in shock  
                     E   D/F#  
With my eyes in the clock
A
She was just there somewhere and here I am again 

E   B      D       E     
And as my mind unwheels 
             B         D       E   
I feel the freeze down in my knees 
     B      D         E   F#7
But just before she leaves, she receives
