[Verse]
     Am            C          F              C
The mirage of Del Rio it was burning in his eyes
     Am          C                 F            G
And sleep had escaped him, too consumed by his pride
          Am                C              F         C
Like the lonesome and high country he was lost in a haze
         Am                   C           F              C
And the thoughts of what he'd do if he unloaded all his rage

[Verse]
     Am              C            F                  C
The city was almost silent as he passed the humming signs
        Am              C                    F                 G
On the corner he heard laughter, made him afraid of what he'd find
    Am                 C          F          C
He pushed through the door, hypnotized by a sound
      Am             C                F              C
Just then tears overcame him and his heart began to drown

[Verse]
        Am            C                  F             C
It was there that he shot her while the lovers were embraced
          Am          C              F                G
With the bullet he intended for the man who took his place
    Am                C          F           C
He cried through the night as he made his escape
         Am            C                 F             C
But the rain that was fallin' could not wash away his shame

[Verse]
        Am           C                 F             C
On the banks of the Brazos, where the desert willow grows
     Am            C                F          G
The clear shallow water just won't say all it knows
   Am                C                   F                  C
A moment of burning anger can curse the living through the days
        Am              C                     F          C
You can let that river take you but you will never get away
