Verse 1

Am
Tucson, Arizona
                             Fmaj7
Rising in the heat like a mirage
Am
Tony keeps his Chevy
                               Fmaj7
Like a virgin, locked in his garage
   C                G
He brings it out at midnight
    Dm7               Am         G
And cruises down the empty boulevards
       C                   G
And he prowls the darkened alleys
     Dm7                Am            G      E
That snake between the city's thirsty yards
    Am            G                 F            E7              Esus4
The lonely desert skies reflect the anger in his eyes, and it is dawn

Verse 2

    Am
His father died of drinking
                                         Fmaj7
And left five children, sinking with his mom
    Am
His older brother, Bobby
                            Fmaj7
Never made it back from Vietnam
     C                  G
With high school well behind him
   Dm7                Am                G
He lives at home and works this shitty job
       C              G
And he thinks his '60 Chevy
   Dm7             Am             G      E
Is the only true amigo that he's got
    Am                   G               F                 E7         Esus4
His heart is filled with sadness and his soul is like some ugly vacant lot

Verse 3

Am
Mary Estelle Hanna
                                Fmaj7
Came out from Louisiana for the sun
  Am
A deal gone bad in Dallas
                                     Fmaj7
Left her burned and broke and on the run
C                     G
To make the rent and groceries
    Dm7                Am      G
She takes this job at 3.15 an hour
C                G
Serving shots of whiskey
    Dm7             Am             G    E
And tequila in some smoky red-neck bar
         Am                    G               F          E7          Esus4
And she dreams some day she'll make her way to L.A. and become a movie star

Verse 4

Am
Tony saw her working
                                      Fmaj7
He swallowed hard and asked her for a date
Am
Mary laughed and answered,
                                      Fmaj7
"I would, but every night I'm working late"
C                    G
He said he had some cocaine
     Dm7               Am              G
That she could have if she'd just ride along
         C                  G
She said, "What the hell, I may as well
  Dm7            Am             G      E
I haven't had no fun in so damn long"
   Am               G
He picked her up at closing time
     F                 E7                 Esus4
They pulled out on the road and they were gone

Verse 5

Am
Tony's mom got frantic
                                    Fmaj7
When she found her son had not come home
Am
Mary's roommate panicked
                                     Fmaj7
And called the sheriff from a public phone
                       G
They asked her lots of questions
    Dm7                Am                 G
She tried her best to tell them what she saw
    C                    G
And late that night they found poor Mary
Dm7            Am            G      E
Lying in some narrow, dusty draw
    Am        G                F           E                 E7
The coroner reported, that she hadn't been deceased for very long

Verse 6

Am
Two weeks on they found it
                                Fmaj7
Buried to the windshield in the sand
Am
There inside lay Tony
                             Fmaj7
With a small revolver in his hand
    C              G
The papers simply stated
   Dm7                Am                   G
It must have been the drugs that drove him mad
    C               G
The neighbours speculated
Dm7               C             G      E
What could make a good boy go so bad
         Am                  G
Well, it might have been the desert heat
   F                   E7            Esus4
It might have been the home he never had
