Tucumcari Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]He was out sunning with the youth
He was [C]seen in a damaging [G]light
Picking popcorn from his tooth
Ordering [D]cocktails with his [G]eyes

[Verse 2]
She had a [G]face like
a dumped-out ashtray
ashtray
[C]Spitting out straight ab[G]use
Vocabulary of a broken marquee
And a [D]wit she couldn't use
[G]

[Verse 3]
Get [C]your feet off of my dash[G]board
[D]What do you think the
damn thing's [G]for
[C]At least try to look [G]pretty
Tonight we're [D]going into
[G]Tucumcari

[Verse 4]
Pulled a wet [G]bill from his shoe
[C]Wrinkling a dignified [G]face
By the broken heart shaped pool
[D]In a less than enchanted sta[G]te

[Verse 5]
She was off at the little girls' room
With a [C]boy from the Trouble Tree [G]Bar
Snapping her jeans while the radio sings
I [D]love you just the way you [G]are

[Verse 6]
Get [C]your feet off of my dash[G]board
[D]What do you think the
damn thing's [G]for
[C]At least try to look [G]pretty
Tonight we're [D]going into Tucumcari [Repeat x2]

[Outro 1]
[G][C][G][D][G][C][G]
