[Verse]
     Bm            D          G  
The mirage of Del Rio it was 
            D
burning in his eyes
     Bm          D           
And sleep had escaped him, too 
      G            A
consumed by his pride
          Bm                D     
Like the lonesome and high country
         G         D
 he was lost in a haze
         Bm                   D   
And the thoughts of what he'd do 
        G              D
if he unloaded all his rage

[Verse]
     Bm              D         
The city was almost silent as he 
   G                  D
passed the humming signs
        Bm              D      
On the corner he heard laughter, 
              G                 A
made him afraid of what he'd find
    Bm                 D  
He pushed through the door, 
        G          D
hypnotized by a sound
Continues after the ad
      Bm             D            
Just then tears overcame him and 
    G              D
his heart began to drown

[Verse]
        Bm            D           
It was there that he shot her 
       G             D
while the lovers were embraced
          Bm          D           
With the bullet he intended for 
   G                A
the man who took his place
    Bm                D          
He cried through the night as he 
G           D
made his escape
         Bm            D          
But the rain that was fallin' 
       G             D
could not wash away his shame

[Verse]
        Bm           D            
On the banks of the Brazos, where 
     G             D
the desert willow grows
     Bm            D              
The clear shallow water just won't
  G          A
 say all it knows
   Bm                D            
A moment of burning anger can 
       G                  D
curse the living through the days
        Bm              D         
You can let that river take you 
            G          D
but you will never get away
