[Verse 1]
D
Right across the desert, if I may,
G                             D
I walked along this lonely highway,
  A
For miles around not a soul to see,
       G                            D
It’s what they call the land of the free

[Verse 2]
D
Like a Christmas gift in July
G                             D
I knew straight up she’d take me for a ride
    A
Her car jumped off the main road,
   G                           D
leaving dusty trail as her V8 roared

D
Tired and weary of the road,
   G                       D
I knew where this was gonna go
    A
And when we learned only one room was free,
   G                                  D
I thought I’d make my move and so did she,


[Chorus]
D          F#m G D
Hot sun of Arizona
Bm            E         G        D
Keeps burning my heart over and over
D          F#m G D
Hot sun of Arizona
Bm            E         G        D
Keeps burning my heart over and over


[Verse]
D
Boundaries started to expand
       G                           D
when she went and gently touched my hand
A
A touch from such a charming miss
    G                          D
I strongly felt like reaching for a kiss

D
Sooner as we're getting mellow
       G                           D
the night went quickly dark and stellar,
A
And when she finally closed that door,
    G                                    D
we both got more than we ever bargained for


[Chorus]

Bm            E         G        D
Keeps burning my heart over and over

[Bridge]
Bm
Dreaming of the golden valley,
       E
And of other things I wished for madly
         G
When the tricky desert sun crept up
A
Trying to steal the remnants of my luck

Bm
And when the morning whitened
       E
I found no signs of her beside me
         G
She left me no notes, she just left
A
A sunburnt hole in my chest


[Chorus]
n.c.
Hot sun of Arizona
n.c.
Keeps burning my heart over and over
