Intro: G 

G                                         C 
My friend, you finally found another name 
            Em                D                  G 
One that connects you to the moon when you can't sleep 
                                             C 
You say there's reasons why you act this way 
          Em          D                  C 
Some are chemical and some are just the truth 
      G            D           C 
I'm obsessing over death again 
       G              D         C 
Like I did when I was seventeen 
                 G           D      Em 
Underneath an outline of the stars 
                   C 
Way down in the Valle De Ameca

G                              C 
And I wonder if you're happier 
     Em              D     G 
In a one by twelve AlNiCo 
                                    C 
You're gentle, and you're beautiful 
   Em            D 
So I don't wanna bother you 
C           G           D        C 
No, how you always make me smile 
        G               D          C 
When I think of you out on my roof 
              G              D    Em 
Underneath an outline of the stars 
                 C 
Way down in the Valle De Ameca 

     G                 D                 G 
Your thoughts are like rearview mirrors 
    D            C 
Down in the dark 
        G            C       D     G 
Turn it up till it's crystal clear 
          D      C   G 
Electric guitars 
          D      C   G 
Electric guitars 
          D      C

G 

                                   C 
These days I wonder do you recount 
       Em                             G 
As you sit inside your twelfth house 
                                          C 
When I return I hope you're there somehow 
             Em         D 
Inside those same seven bars 
   C 
Modern Joan Of Arc 
    G                D    C 
Out starting up your car 
                G               D     C 
Buried under an outline of the stars 
Endless static 
   G              D   Em 
A suitcase and guitar 
                 C 
Way down in the Valle De Ameca 

     G                           D       G 
Your thoughts are like rearview mirrors 
      D          C 
Down in the dark 
        G                    D      G 
Turn it up till it's crystal clear 
         D        C 
Electric guitars 
         G           C    D     G 
And your eyes like a city deer 
        D       C G        D        C G       D 
With a wild heart, with a wild heart, such a wild heart
