[Verse 1]
E B7
She left a lipstick letter on the mirror shattered on the bathroom floor.
E
All I could put back together was never see me no more.
E7 A F#m
Took all her clothes but one red dress, the one she knows I like the best.
E B7 E N.C.
All I could do was clean up the mess, and wonder where she had gone.
[Verse 2]
E B7
I had a sky-blue rag top Mustang, a 1964.
E
She drove it off into the night til it just wouldn't go no more.
E7 A F#m
She caught a ride on into town, bought some gas and laid the top down.
E B7 E N.C.
Then she burned that pony to the ground on the desert in New Mexico.
[Chorus]
B7 E
When Rita leaves, Rita's gone.

She gave me every chance a man could want.

I've never known a love so strong,
E A
Or so crazy when she's been done wrong.
B7 E E
When Rita leaves, Rita's gone.

I put a call into her mamasita, back in El Paso.

She said she got the story from Rita on her way to Mexico.

Her mama knew I was taking it hard, said she was sorry about my car.
E B7
She said "You're lucky all she broke was your heart
E N.C.
You better just let her go."
