[Intro]
| C F C F | C C G G | F F G G | Am Am G G |

[Verse]
C F C F
Does the wind still blow In New Mexico?
C G
Do the silver candelabras yet shine?
F C
Is Cathrine still queen of El Paso?
Em G
Never to be yours, never to be mine
F G
Out of reach like the pale moon that shines
Am G
On the road to Las Cruces

[Verse 2]
C F C F
On a high plateau out of Anton Chico
C G
I see the dust of a herd moving through
F C
The dream and the lights softly fading
Em G
The horses will not stand, they wish to go with them
F G
Riding for Alex Corone,
Am G
on the road to Las Vegas

[Verse 3]
C F C F
At the line of desire, seven strands of barbed wire
C G
Will hold back the on rushing tide
F C
Many dreams have been brought to the border
Em G
Down in the canyons, down in the culverts
F G
They pray for safe passage tonight
Am G
On the trail to Albuquerque

[Verse 4]
C F C F
I crossed over Ratón, As I stood there alone
C G
Looking in to the heart of the night
F C
Across that dark plain to El Paso
Em G
Where Cathrine sleeps, Cathrine dreams
F G
Out of reach like the pale moon that shines
Am G
On the road to Las Cruces
Am G C
On the road to Las Cruces
