[Intro:  ]D  Bm  A 
 
I've (D) spent 23 nights in this one horse town 
I've (Bm) been jacked up, been broke down for too (A) long 
I've (D) been busting my tail in the blazing sun 
Watching (Bm) jack rabbits watch tumbleweeds run until (A) dawn 
(Bm) Something's whisperin' in my (F#m7) ear 
(G) That I should be (Bm) light years from (Gm) here in 
 
Chorus: 
(D) Albuquerque, (Bm) where the skies are (A) blue 
(I'm gonna take a bus, take a train, gonna fly 
(F#m7) Prayin' she's there after all this time) 
(D) Oh in Albuquerque, (Bm) my heart aches for (A) you 
(Stretchin' out across the lazy haze 
(F#m7) Haunting my dreams, callin' my name) 
 
Three more days 'til I get my pay 
I need my money but I can't stay another night 
I've been tossin', turnin' in my bed 
I can't get her out, out of my head to save my life 
I shake the sand outta my boots 
Six hundred thirty-four miles to you in 
 
Repeat Chorus
