Intro Organ an then:  E5  D5 A5  X4

                   E5   D5  A5 
I know she's a tracker,
                      E5   D5  A5  
any style that would back her 
E5                   E5   D5  A5    
They say she's a chooser 
                   E5   D5 
but I just can't refuse her
A5  
She was just there, but then she can't be here no more

E5   B5      D5       E5     
And as my mind unwheels 
             B5         D5       E5   
I feel the freeze down in my knees 
     B5      D5         E5   F#5
But just before she leaves, she receives

Intro X2 

                         E5   D5  A5              
She's been down in the dunes 
                          E5   D5  A5
and she's dealt with the goons 
        E5              E5   D5  A5 
Now she drinks from a bitter cup, 
                          E5   D5  
I'm trying to get her to give it up 
A5 
She was just here, I fear she can't be there no
more

E5   B5      D5       E5     
And as my mind unwheels 
             B5         D5       E5   
I feel the freeze down in my knees 
     B5      D5         E5   F#5
But just before she leaves, she receives

Ab5            
It's long, long when she's gone
C#5  
I get weary holding on 
A5 
Now I'm coldly fading fast  
B5                                       E5
I don't think I'm gonna last very much longer

Intro and Solo: E

                          E5   D5  A5  
"She's stoned" said the Swede, 
                     E5   D5  A5
and the moon calf agreed   
       E5              E5   D5  A5
But like a viper in shock  
                     E5   D5  
With my eyes in the clock
A5
She was just there somewhere and here I am again 

E5   B5      D5       E5     
And as my mind unwheels 
             B5         D5       E5   
I feel the freeze down in my knees 
     B5      D5         E5   F#5
But just before she leaves, she receives
