Listen For the timing:

V1 Well I walk the walls
To be with you
Early night time morning comes so
soon

And on thursday night
New York Glow
While I was in your arms
Black water flows

PC And if you weren’t told
Would you ever know

C Do you see me tonight
With the coins on my eyes
Loves sweet surprise
The light upon your Face
All the lovers at war
That roll down the line
Love felt so far
The light upon your face

V2 You know and while we lie
He is alone
What a lonely
Dream it alone

And you know there’s nothing more
That I could say
I just close my eyes
Let you carry me away

PC And if you weren’t told
Would you ever know

C Do you see me tonight
With the coins on my eyes
Loves sweet surprise
The light upon your Face
All the lovers at war
That roll down the line
Love felt so far
The light upon your face

Br Ya you know love is
Always lookin
For an open grave

Ya to lay down
And unfold it’s arms
And Die

C Do you see me tonight
With the coins on my eyes
Loves sweet surprise
The light upon your Face
All the lovers at war
That roll down the line
Love felt so far
The light upon your face

There is a couple of chords that I think could sound better.. please leave comments or
me with any suggestions. This song definately needs to be out there because it is very
to play (even in the wrong tunning).

Jason – jay101@sasktel.net

Johnathan plays The A chord barred and the normal way in this song
so i put an on the A chords that need to be barred. Or you can
play it the normal way, im just tabbing this the way Rice plays it.

Capo V

Well I took a camera on vacation

To fit Miami in a frame A————-0—-0–
A E E-0—–2————-

She didn’t mind, she blew me kisses, said well what’s your name

I planned my dinner at the hotel
But then my dinner plans got wrecked
An investment banker started something so I broke his neck
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/johnathan_rice/were_all_stuck_out_in_the_desert_crd.html )
Refrain:
We’re all stuck out in the desert
And we’re gonna die
Wipe that salt and sand from your blistering eyes

Well the polygraph needles were jumping
And my conscience said what fell asleep
I can’t trust myself to tell the secrets I was told to keep

Well the fastest jackelope in Texas
He started runnin’ out of luck
Bit by a snake then he got hit by Junior’s semi-truck

Refrain

Well I know some times I get distracted
America’s so big and wide
With a long white finger she says hush I’m not the marrying kind

My mind moves faster when I’m walking
My baby’s shoes are dipped in bronze
I don’t give a shit, she calls the shots, that’s how we get along

Refrain x3

We?re driving through the canyons

Singing songs from the sixties
The telephone rang, she said,

?Babe, do you miss me’
And ain?t it a shame not to love the one you?re with

Well she spoke with the prettiest mouth

And she scorned me
She sharpened her teeth

And flashed them to warn me
Said, “ain?t it a shame when you hate the one you loved”

And it couldn?t be me
It couldn?t be me
No, the man in your dreams
He don?t look a thing like me

See I dated a rich girl

With a mother of pearl
Who paid rent in her high rise

The weight of the world
And ain?t it a shame when you?re exchangin? all your brand new gifts

And after a night on the floor,

She put the chain on her door
I wore out my welcome

I guess she got bored
‘Cause she laid eyes on my brother and laid him across my bed

And it couldn?t be me
It couldn?t be me
No, the man in your dreams
He don?t look a thing like me

Well it sounds like rain

And here that?s a rare thing
Out here in the desert,

We’re stealing our water
From a hole in a mountain that flows to the affordable homes

And from my faucet it drips

So we’ll clean up the messes
The others have left us

Well I think they blessed us
There?s a chain on my door but I?m in love with the one I?m with

And it couldn?t be me
It couldn?t be me
No, the man in your dreams
He don?t look a thing like me
And it couldn?t be me
No, it couldn?t be me
No, the man in your dreams
He don?t look a thing like me
