[Verse 1]
D
Right across the desert, if I may,
G D
I walked along this lonely highway,
A
For miles around not a soul to see,
G D
It’s what they call the land of the free
[Short instrumental]

[Verse 2]
D
Like a Christmas gift in July
G D
I knew straight up she’d take me for a ride
A
Her car jumped off the main road,
G D
leaving dusty trail as her V8 roared
D
Tired and weary of the road,
G D
I knew where this was gonna go
A
And when we learned only one room was free,
G D
I thought I’d make my move and so did she,
[Chorus]
D F#m G D
Hot sun of Arizona
Bm E G D
Keeps burning my heart over and over
D F#m G D
Hot sun of Arizona
Bm E G D
Keeps burning my heart over and over
[Verse]
D
Boundaries started to expand
G D
when she went and gently touched my hand
A
A touch from such a charming miss
G D
I strongly felt like reaching for a kiss
D
Sooner as we're getting mellow
G D
the night went quickly dark and stellar,
A
And when she finally closed that door,
G D
we both got more than we ever bargained for
[Chorus]
D F#m G D
Hot sun of Arizona
Bm E G D
Keeps burning my heart over and over
D F#m G D
Hot sun of Arizona
Bm E G D
Keeps burning my heart over and over

[Bridge]
Bm
Dreaming of the golden valley,
E
And of other things I wished for madly
G
When the tricky desert sun crept up
A
Trying to steal the remnants of my luck
Bm
And when the morning whitened
E
I found no signs of her beside me
G
She left me no notes, she just left
A
A sunburnt hole in my chest
[Chorus]
n.c.
Hot sun of Arizona
n.c.
Keeps burning my heart over and over
