[Em]Out on the [D]tar plains, [G]the glides are [B7/D#]moving, [Em]all [D]looking for the [G]new place to [B7/D#]drive
[Em]You sit be[D]side me, [G]so newly [B7/D#]charming, [Em]sweatening [D]dew drops glisten, [G]freshing 
si[B7/D#]de

in her ga[B7/D#]ze

[Em]And watching [D]lovers part, [G]I feel you [B7/D#]smiling, [Em]what glass [D]splinters lie so [G]deep 
your mi[B7/D#]nd?
[Em]To tear out [D]from your eyes with a [G]word to stiffen [B7/D#]brooding lies
