[Verse 1]
E
From the heart-wrenched sweet nothings
E
Between two distant lovers
E A Amaj9
To the dying of the cruelty of war
A Amaj9
Oh, the sad news and the love songs
E
Are passed along these phone poles
B
That stretch forever
B7 E
Like the lines of a Hemingway story
B
And they stretch along this highway
B
Like so many martyrs
A Amaj9
Hung and burned for loving
A Amaj9
Shedding light on Caesar’s gardens
E B B6sus4 G G6sus4
And they’re passing on a message sent from you
E
To us here in New Mexico
[Instrumental 1]

[Verse 2]
E
Well the old man at the red light
E
Was selling homeless papers
E A Amaj9
And our windows locked the awkward silence in
A Amaj9
We kept our eyes ahead
E
And then we quickly changed the subject
B B7
And our hearts broke even more
E
With our own hardness
B
Because Mark had asked
B
If we should invite him along for dinner
A
And we hemmed and hawed
Amaj9 A Amaj9
‘Til green faded into our Scarlet Letter
E B B6sus4 G G6sus4
And I know no martyrs died to pass that on
E
To us here in New Mexico
[Instrumental 2]

[Verse 3]
E
Well the night is raining from the clouds
E
That hang above this city
E A Amaj9
And all I want is just to be alone
A Amaj9
Unless that girl I’m praying for
E
Is here in Albuquerque
B B7
Unless you came to raise
E
The quick and dead
B
Then we’ll step out of this river
B
Of the Father, Ghost, and Son
A Amaj9
Where we’ve waded in your innocence
A Amaj9
Cause all of ours was gone
E
And we’ll lift our eyes to see
B B6sus4 G G6sus4
C# new light dawn
E
On the beauty of New Mexico
