intro: A, C# D, A
F# C#
On a sunset I-10 mile lies a body beneath a sheet
D E
The orange sky don’t seem to mind but I’m on the edge of my seat
F# C#
There’s ten thousand auto lights dead stopped in dirty Tucson heat
D A E F#
We crane our necks to get a glimpse, and ride on by while I nurse defeat
Nurse defeat
F# C#
It’s that same old sinking feeling, that blows on in from time to time
D E
The only consolation comes tying despair to a rhyme
F# C#
And knowing some are at home working, raising kids and saying prayers
D A E
Unaware of modern science, they may be wrong but I don’t care
A E
They pray for Tucson, they pray for me
F# D
They pray these roads lead home and won’t take us too far
Take us too far
F# E F#
F# C#
Well we get these years to play with and I’ve been game to roll the dice
D A E
But lately staring in the mirror has been showing me the price
F# C#
Of all the reckless toxic gambling; having my fate hang from a string
D A E
The lonesome nights with pills and powders, the fuel I pretend helps me sing
A E
So pray for Tucson, pray for me
F# D
Pray these roads lead home and won’t take us too far
A E
Pray for Tucson, pray for me
F# E
I hope your faith is what will carry me
D
If there's something past those stars
A B C# D
Cause the spell breaks every time I see those funeral cars
A B C# D
Or when they throw the floodlights on and I’m left stranded at the bar
A B C# D
I spend so many nights tempting fate with this guitar but I’m coming home
A E
So pray for Tucson, pray for me
F# D
Pray these roads lead home and won’t take us too far
A E
Pray for Tucson, pray for me
F# D
Pray these roads lead home and won’t take us too far
A E
Pray for Tucson, pray for me
F# D
Pray for Tucson,
I hope your faith is what will carry me
If there's something past those stars
Pray for me.
