1. It’s getting close to sundown over the sierra.
   Ami                     Dmi
   Standing on a heatwave, burning with desire.
   Ami                     Dmi
   She was on the sidewalk looking for a nightlight.
   Ami                              Dmi
   Talked about the real things and drove into the fire.
   
2. Headlights on the highway, the desert wind is howling.
   Rattlesnakes and romance is filling with the rain.
   Candy apple red dress, bleedin’ when she kissed me.
   Heaven in a ragtop take away my pain.

R: When your chips are down, when your highs are low – joy ride (joy ride).

   Move across the night like a separate wind – (joy ride).

3. Pulled up to a motel, vacancy was buzzing.
   Pink and dirty neon, settle on the hood.
   Wrap your arms around me, come a little closer.
   Stumble in the twilight and fell onto the floor.

   Lipstick on the nightstand and demons outside the door.
