Eliza Gilkyson - Lights Of Santa Fe
INTRO: G
C G
Driving at night on Highway 25
C G C G D Dsus4 D Dsus2
Blindfolded I'd know the way
G D G C
Up over the rise like a jewel in the mountains
G D G
Shine the lights of Santa Fe
C G
How many times have I come home to you
C G C G D Dsus4 D Dsus2
Just to have you turn me away
G D G C
You've been betrayed by the ones that threw you to
G D C
The whims of the white man's way
Am Em
But you show no resentment and you show no resistance
G C
To the ones who've done you wrong
G B7 Em
Oh, they'll hang themselves on their own fool existence
C
After the laughter is gone
G C G
Ohh, Santa Fe, city of faith
C G C G D Dsus4 D Dsus2
I did my time in an honourable way
C G B7 Em
Now there is a candle for each dream that breaks
C
In the Lights of Santa Fe
G C G
From the houses of mud, to the governor's palace
C G C G D Dsus4 D Dsus2
Spirits walk the streets in the daylight
G D G C
And some scream for blood, some bear no malice
G D C
For the ones who stole their birthright
Am Em
Naive tourists standing shoulder to shoulder
G C
With wise and ancient souls
G B7 Em
Oh, the old way gets lost and the tracks grow colder
C
As the bell of St. Francis tolls
G C G
Ohh, Santa Fe, city of faith
C G C G D Dsus4 D Dsus2
I did my time in an honourable way
C G B7 Em
Now there is a candle for each dream that breaks
C
In the Lights of Santa Fe
G B7 Em
Ohh, there is a candle for each dream that breaks
C
In the Lights of Santa Fe
