Verse 
C               G       C                C7 
As blue shadows fall a- cross the canyon wall 
    F                    C     G 
The cattle are quiet and still 
C               G        C 
Dusty, sore and tired, I build myself a fire 
     D                        G 
As a full moon peaks over the hills 

  C              G      C             C7 
A blanket for my bed, a saddle for my head 
     F                            E7 
I'll sleep, but in my dreams I'll stray 
A                        D 
Back across the miles to where my darlin' smiles 
   G                     C 
In memories of old Santa Fe 

Chorus 
     F            F#dim         C 
Adi- os mi c o - r i ny o, she told me that day 
   D                       Dm           G 
As I kissed her softly and then rode a- way 

      C               G           C             C7 
Now I lie beneath the stars with- out her in my arms 
   F                      E7 
So lonesome and so far a- way 
         A                            D 
But each night, I go back there in my dreams and in my prayers 
       G                     C 
And in memories of old Santa Fe 

Chorus 
     F            F#dim         C 
Adi- os mi c o - r i ny o, she told me that day 
   D                       Dm           G 
As I kissed her softly and then rode a- way

      A                              D 
She's waitin' there, I know, but for now all I can hold 
       G                     C 
Are my memories of old Santa Fe
