intro: Bm, A, G; Bm, A, G

             Bm
Well, there ain't no phone and the grass don't grow
                         A    G
In the older part of New Mexico
   Bm
I drifted into town one day
                  A      G
Stumbled in on a lost cafe
     G                                          A
The shades were pulled and the door was locked
    
But something made me knock
Bm
Time stood still when she opened the door
                       A        G     Bm
I didn't know where I was anymore

And we were lost in each others eyes
                        A     G
Where loneliness meets paradise
G                                 A 
Something in my heart broke free

Blowing wild as a tumble weed

chorus
G/D                 Bm
Somewhere north of Heaven
      A              G
Where eagles fear to fly
                          Bm           A       
The sun burns hot as the Devil's gaze

Where desert meets the sky
D               G             A                  Bm
Tattooed on my memory is the image of an angels face
Em                A              Bm
North of Heaven, south of Santa Fe


Bad news tends to travel fast
And I was running from my past
I left her when the morning broke
The truth is I never let her go
Now I'm still running free
But in my heart I'll always be

repeat chorus

turnaround

outro: Bm, A, G x4
