[Intro]
G Bm7 C
G Bm7 C
[Verse 1]
G
I didn't know if we were over,
or just on the rocks
C
Was me thinking I can save us just a mirage?
G
I was burning up the highway,
it kept getting longer
C
With every turn of these tires,
she just kept getting goner
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm C
In the sky was showing no signs of rain
Bm C
Ain't nothing delaying that plane
[Chorus]
Am7
I'm racing through the desert
D
Thinking I can catch her
G D/F# Em
But losing ground in this Chevrolet
Am7 D
That seven forty seven somewhere between here and heaven
G D/F# Em
And heaven knows I let her slip away
Am7
I showed up and she's gone
[Verse 2]
D G Bm7
Guess I got to Tucson too late
C G

C

or maybe having second thoughts?
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm C
And was moving on made up in her mind
Bm C
Would she changed it if she knew that I
[Chorus]
Am7
Was racing through the desert?
D
Thinking I can catch her
G D/F# Em
But losing ground in this Chevrolet?
Am7 D
That seven forty seven somewhere between here and heaven
G D/F# Em
And heaven knows I let her slip away
Am7
I showed up and she's gone
D G
Guess I got to Tucson too late
[Post-Chorus]
Bm C
Now she's on some silver wings flying
Bm C
And me I'm on the bad side of good timing, yeah,
yeah
Cadd9
[Chorus]
Am
I'm racing through the desert
D
Thinking I can catch her
G D/F# Em
But losing ground in this Chevrolet
Am7 D
That seven forty seven somewhere between here and heaven
and
G D/F# Em
Heaven knows I let her slip away
Am7
I showed up and she's gone
D
Guess I waited too long
Am
Like a sad country song
D G Bm7 C
Damn, I got to Tucson too late
[Outro]
G Bm7
Too late
C G
Oh, I got to Tucson too late
