He promised her a new and better life, out in Arizona.Underneath the blue, never ending sky, swore that he was gonna.
Get things in order, he’d send for her.
When he left her behind it never crossed her mind.CHORUS
CHORUS C G Am F
There is no Arizona, no Painted Desert, no Sedona.
If there was a Grand Canyon she could fill it up with
the lies he told her.
But they don’t exist, these dreams he’s sold her,
She’ll wake up and find there is no Arizona.
She got a postcard with no return address, postmarked Tombstone.
That said, “I don’t know where I’m going next, when I do I’ll let you know.”
May, June, July.she won-ders why,
She’s still waiting, she keeps waiting..CHORUS
BRIDGE Dm Em
Each day the sun sets into the west, her heart
sinks lower in her chest.
And friends keep asking when she’s going
Finally she tells them, ” Don’t you knowCHORUS
ENDING

He promised her a new and better life..out in Arizona.
