		Desert Motel
		By Ian Tyson


D         G D            A

D                G
Sky was a mix of oil and pastel
       D                                      A
It was quarter past twelve in the desert motel
D			   G
On the miracle mile or the highway to hell
    Bm                          A      D
She sits all alone in the desert motel

D 			     G
He had a broken marraige,he had a busted arm
D				A
Good attitude and smooth cowboy charm
	D				  G
He was leaving his wife, it would not be long
	  Bm				A	  D
He would meet her next month at the rodeo in Tuscon

	Bm			  D
So she packed all her dreams and most of her stuff
					  A
In old carboard boxes in the back of her truck
          D			G	
Now there isn't much heat, the room's getting colder
    Bm                         A       D
The week has gone by, the rodeo is over

D		Bm		A		A

D		    G
Saturday night, and she just found out
    D					  A
He paid up his fines, and then he turned out
D				  G
He was gone with the wind, but he left her a note
    Bm			    A	    D
It lifted her heart, he gave her hope

      Bm		 D
Now a 60 watt light bulb hangs by a wire
					     A
She read what he wrote and she knows he's a liar
D			G
Champions are made, big buckles are won
     Bm			      A	       D
But love got lost on a highway in Tuscon

D		G		A    Bm    (KEY CHANGE!!!)
