The Road to Gila Bend
by Los Lobos

Intro  F  C

G         F  C         F  C
Made Nogales overnight
G                F     C             F  C
Thru the desert in the yellow light
G             F    C              F  C
Missing everything I left behind
Dm
Will they see me coming 
D             
Will they know I'm running

G             F      C           F  C
Got to Tucson        in the dark
G             F      C           F  C              
Keep an eye out      for the law
G                  F       C               F  C
A hundred miles or more from a broken heart
Dm
Can they see me coming
D
Will they know I'm running

Chorus
G                F      C         F  C
It's a long long way to Gila Bend
G                F     C          F  C      
One      silver dollar in my hand
G                 F     C               F  C
Roads twists and turns is there no end
G                F     C          F  C
When I get there I can lay my head in Gila Bend

Instrumental   

G         F    C             F  C                     
Saw the church along the way
G           F       C            F  C
A place to kneel to hide and pray
G                F    C            F  C
Help me make it maybe one more day
Dm
Or they'll see me coming 
D
Do they know I'm running

Chorus
