C D G
From the tin rooftop the little boy did watch
C D G
The procession down through town
C D G
Through the museum where Daniel whupped the Devil
C D G
With them boys from the underground
C D G
Where the Giants of Science fight for tight control
C D G
Over the wildlands of New Mexico
C D G C
Sam Houston's ghost's in Texas fighting for his soul
Am Em G D C Am
And the townsfolk rest uneasy beneath the guns of Kid Colt
G C D
And the kid says "Hey, where's Santa Ana?"
G C D
He who could romance the dumb into talking
G C D
Take a chance with me tonight, my contessa
G C D
If it don't work out I ain't lame, I can walk hey ---------|

C D G
Now some folks think cancer's taken to the streets of this town
C D G
Well Sandy eats her candy and then lays her money down
C D G C
Them cats are in from the canyons to strut their stuff in town
G C
But there's only secret sinners here
G C
Lord, there's only secret thieves
G C
Only a fool would try to save
D
What the desert chose to leave
G C D
And hey there senorita
G C D
With your playboys in their Spanish bandanas
G C D
French cream won't soften those boots, baby
G C D
French kisses will not break your heart oh ---------|

Em Bm
Oh painted night set free with light
Am Em
Glows outside the Rainbow Saloon
Bm
Matching braces with a Spanish lady
Am Em
'Neath a graduation moon
C D
No more colleges, no more coronations
G Em
Some punk's idea of a teenage nation
Am Em
Has forced Santa Ana to change his station
G D4 D
From soldier to cartoon
C D G
And the Giants of Science spend their days and nights
C D G
Not with wives, not with lovers, but searchin' for the lights
C D G C
They spotted in the desert on their helicoptor flights
D D4 D
Just to be lost in the dust and the night
G C D G C D
Hey ah my contessa, in your juke joint rags you always bring candy for the kids
G C G
Come waltz with me tonight senorita
G C D
'Cause only fools are alone on a night like this oh ---------|
