The Way to Santa Fe - Phil Pritchett

The Way to Santa Fe chords

INTRO:

E  C#m  A B E
E  C#m  A B E

VERSE 1:

E                   C#m
I hate the taste of salt
     A      B       E
That I have in my mouth
E                     C#m
And I have cursed the heat
     A      B       E
Too many times to count

E                     C#m
My mind has turned as flaky
        A     B      E
As the skin upon my nose
E                C#m
No more seeking refuge 
           A     B      E
From this leaky garden hose


    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



PRE-CHORUS/CHORUS:
    B
So get to the closet, darlin
       A                  E
Where all your coats are hung
        B
We're gonna go get a little 
          A           E
Mountain air in our lungs

A
We can make the border
E
Before the break of day
A                B           E   C#m  A B E
Do you know the way to Santa Fe
E  C#m  A B E

VERSE 2:
This car runs a little rough
Yeah, but she'll be alright
'Cuz this won't be the first time
She's had to run all night

We'll eat our meals on the dashboard
And we'll sleep in some hotels
After all, that turquoise
Always suited you so well

Let this highway take us
Wherever it may lead
The waterdrops on the hood
Look like rosary beads

We will find ouR own redemption
Somewhere along the way
A                B           (pause)
Do you know the way to Santa Fe

JAM:

E B A   A B E
E B A   A B E
E B A   A B E
E B A

E  C#m   A B E
E  C#m   A B E

VERSE 3:
I'll call in sick to work
You can call in sick to school
We're goin' in search of vacancy signs
Over luke warm swimming pools

We'll take our chances lightly
We'll make common things make sense
Once I smell that desert air
Through my air conditioning vents

Just leave the phone machine on
Just let the milk go bad
We'll laugh at the carpet on the walls
And the lumpy matress pad

Who says that you can't go to bed
In the middle of the day
Do you know the way to Santa Fe
