Adios Terlingua by J Molin
Adios Terlingua
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Verse 1]
G C G
Adios, Terlingua, the crew, we got to fly
G D
I wish we didn’t have to go but we got all day to drive
G C G
We’re headed back to Austin through the Chisos one more time
G D G
I’ll try to hold your vistas in my mind
[Verse 2]
G C G
Adios, Terlingua, wish I was feelin fine
G D
It’s probably all that chili and the beer I drank last night
G C G
Or maybe it’s the altitude, not used to living so high
G D G
I’m comin down the mountainside
[Verse 3]
G C G
Adios, Terlingua, where the ocotillo bloom
G D
And mist covers the mountains till it all burns off by noon
G C G
In the baking midday sun we holed up in our dark cool room
G D G
And woke to desert lit up by the moon
[Verse 4]
G C G
Adios, Terlingua, and the old Starlight Cafe
G D
Dogs and locals on the porch, guitars and a fiddle play
G C G
For all the drinkin' tourists with an hour and a half to wait
G D G
The starry music ends for us today
[Verse 5]
G C G
Adios, Terlingua, and the beautiful Big Bend
G D
Sweet Santa Elena, crossing the Rio Grande
G C G
I’m deep inside your canyon walled cathedral of rock and sand
G D G
I’m grateful for your humbling expanse
[Verse 6]
G C G
Adios, Terlingua, and all your hippie refugees
G D
Who left the crazy world behind for desert harmonies
G C G
I wish I could stay longer and hear a few more stories
G D G
I tip my hat to all your rugged glory
[Verse 7]
G C G
Hasta la vista, Terlingua, vultures circling overhead
G D
Gathered by the roadside or some dried up creek bed
G C G
So long sweet roadrunner crossin up ahead
G D G
A ghost town is rising from the dead
