[Verse 1]
F
From the heart-wrenched sweet nothings
F
Between two distant lovers
F A# A#maj9
To the dying of the cruelty of war
A# A#maj9
Oh, the sad news and the love songs
F
Are passed along these phone poles
C
That stretch forever
C7 F
Like the lines of a Hemingway story
C
And they stretch along this highway
C
Like so many martyrs
A# A#maj9
Hung and burned for loving
A# A#maj9
Shedding light on Caesar’s gardens
F C C6sus4 G G6sus4
And they’re passing on a message sent from you
F
To us here in New Mexico
[Instrumental 1]

[Verse 2]
F
Well the old man at the red light
F
Was selling homeless papers
F A# A#maj9
And our windows locked the awkward silence in
A# A#maj9
We kept our eyes ahead
F
And then we quickly changed the subject
C C7
And our hearts broke even more
F
With our own hardness
C
Because Mark had asked
C
If we should invite him along for dinner
A#
And we hemmed and hawed
A#maj9 A# A#maj9
‘Til green faded into our Scarlet Letter
F C C6sus4 G G6sus4
And I know no martyrs died to pass that on
F
To us here in New Mexico
[Instrumental 2]

[Verse 3]
F
Well the night is raining from the clouds
F
That hang above this city
F A# A#maj9
And all I want is just to be alone
A# A#maj9
Unless that girl I’m praying for
F
Is here in Albuquerque
C C7
Unless you came to raise
F
The quick and dead
C
Then we’ll step out of this river
C
Of the Father, Ghost, and Son
A# A#maj9
Where we’ve waded in your innocence
A# A#maj9
Cause all of ours was gone
F
And we’ll lift our eyes to see
C C6sus4 G G6sus4
D new light dawn
F
On the beauty of New Mexico
