On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair 
A                      E 
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air 
G                         D 
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light 
Em 
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim

G                        D 
Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way 
Em                                   F#
