Maria

Capo on 3 
 
 
Am                             G 
I sent Maria North last summer said I?d follow over soon 
      F                               Am     
I?m reminded of my promise ?neath a yellow desert moon 
       Am                              G 
I can hear the crickets song again it?s time for me to go 
F                          Am                            
Cross over the border get out of Mexico 
 
By the bank I sac the darkness and watch the river rollin? past 
I crouch down in the water hidden by the grass 
And I wade that muddy river till I reach the other side 
I scramble through the bushes and out into the night 

          Am                           G             Am 
And a foreign land is all that stands ?tween me and Maria 
  Am                                  G              Am 
I cross the line with her in mind my only chance to see her 
 
I rush silent through mesquite brush no thought of slowin? down 
Movin? over the barbed wire fence I never made a sound 
And I?d sent word to Maria where to meet me before dawn 
I knew she would not fail me I prayed nothing would go wrong 
 
So I inched across the fencelines and rushed across the roads 
I was watching close for green and white INS Broncos 
And at least I reached the crossroads before morning?s light 
Soaked with sweat and torn by thorns Maria nowhere in sight 
 
So I hid off in the brush paralyzed by fear 
I searched my brain for answers why Maria was not here 
And the sky turned gray as dawn approached still I saw no sign 
Of Maria down that long highway I was runnin? out of time 
 
Then a flicker down the pavement dropped me to the dust 
With the rush of tires on asphalt I looked out through the brush 
And my heart leapt to my throat the patrol Bronco passed 
I met the eyes of sweet Maria cryin? through the glass 
I stood and watched ?em disappear speedin? down the road 
I walked out on the blacktop then turned my head to go 
On the quiet early morning my heart heavy filled with pain 
I crawled across the barbed wire headed back the way I came
