INTRO SOLO

Upbeat: G

Parched land no desert sand the sun was just a dot And a little bit of water goes a long way 'cause it's hot Three good buddies were laughing and smoking in the back Of a rented ford They couldn't know they weren't going far

Each one with the money in his pocket Could go out and buy himself a brand new car But they all held the money they had Money they hoped would take them very far

The sky was bright with traffic light now and then a truck And they hadn't seen a cop around all day (what luck) They brought everything they needed The bags and scales to weigh the stuff The driver said the border's just over the bluff

It wasn't until the car suddenly stopped In the middle of a cold and barren plain And the other guy turned and spilled Three boys' blood did they know a trap had been lain?

They're ok the last days of may but i'll be needing dry air I'm leaving soon the others are already there Wouldn't be interested in coming along instead of staying here? It's said the west is nice this time of year

That's what they say

So this is how i could work it out if anyone has any corrections, Additions (especially the different rhythm fills and chord Modulations) or whatever please add it to my tab or send it to me.
