INTRO: D  G

D                               Dsus2-D
Shandy was somebody's daughter
G                    D
Driving to something insane
A7                   
They busted her crossin the border
G                   D
Swift as a sniff of cocaine


D                               Dsus2-D
All she could pay was attention
    G                           D
So all they could take was her time
A7                
Proving an ounce of possession
G                            D
Ain't worth a piece of your mind


CHORUS:
        G              D         G   D
'Cause nightmares are somebody's daydreams
G               A         D
Daydreams are somebody's lies
G               D           G         D
Lies ain't no harder than telling the truth
G             D         A7-G-D
Truth is the perfect disguise

Locked in the gold-handled bathroom
Martin was chaning his mind
Shedding his humble pretentions
One careful toke at a time
And wiping the mask off the man in the mirror
Who really was Billy the Kid
Smilin at somebody dyin
For something that he never did

CHORUS

Soon as he sat down beside her
Shining like Saturday night
Shandy was his for the savin
Sweet as she looked in the light
And maybe they moved from the bar to the bedroom
Maybe just stood there instead
Martin woke up and screamin
Dreamin of blood on the bed

CHORUS
