Eb Ab Eb Cm Ab Eb [Verse 1]
Eb                             Ab    Eb
She said she'd meet me down in Santa Fe

Cm                      Ab   Eb
So we could do the Farolita Walk

Eb                             Ab       Eb
She'd hire a car and we would drive all day

Cm                   Ab     Eb
To Albuquerque or to Window Rock

Cm                              Ab    Eb
Then watch the bonfires burn on Canyon Lane

Bb          Cm              Ab     Eb
As dusk descended and the daylight fade

Cm           Ab                   Eb
But she was held up in the winter rain

   Cm       Ab          Eb
And I was unavoidably delayed
[Verse 2]
Eb                                  Ab    Eb
She said she'd tie her waist-length hair in braids

Cm                          Ab         Eb
And wear the sweater that I bought her once

Eb                        Ab    Eb
And we'd make love for several decades

Cm                       Ab     Eb
Then break to have a shower and lunch

Cm                         Ab       Eb
And she'd have me cut her bangs and come

Bb            Cm             Ab     Eb
Down with her to the Indian trading post

Cm      Ab                   Eb
But she heard a different drum

   Cm         Ab             Eb
When I was spirited away by ghosts
[Middle 8]
Gm
I know she loved me

                Cm
And I loved her too

Ab
But love will make a puppet

       Bb
Out of you
[Verse 3]
Eb                          Ab    Eb
She said she didn't want my money, no

Cm                          Ab         Eb
Despite her personal circumstance, and mine

Eb                        Ab      Eb
And I respected that and spoke as though

Cm                          Ab         Eb
All things were well, but listener I was blind

Cm                         Ab       Eb
I walked right into such a tangled knot

Bb        Cm          Ab     Eb
While she foresaw the trap ahead

Cm                      Ab       Eb
And shared some blessed second thoughts

   Cm         Ab               Eb
And left me gazing at an empty bed

Eb                             Ab    Eb     Ab    Eb
She said she'd meet me down in Santa Fe

Eb                             Ab    Eb     Ab    Eb
She said she'd meet me down in Santa Fe
