G
Up in the mountains of San Isabella
D
So high I looked down on the moon
D
Stars fell below me, I was so close to heaven
G
But I knew the sun would come soon
G
And light one more day
G7 C
Alone on the highway with just a dream
G D
Of finding that certain someone
C G
To set my heart free
C Am G
I saw her face in the sun coming up in New Mexico
C D G
I heard her voice in a river that ran through Durango
C Am G Em
She has a way that I’ve never known but I cannot forget
C D C D G
She is everywhere around me, I just haven’t found her yet
The fog of early morning was still clouding my mind
In this café around Raton
I thought I saw her in the eyes of a stranger
But when I turned around she was a gone
Left a tip on the table
And walked out of that café with a smile
I know that I’ll find her
It’s all just a matter of miles
Chorus
