Am Em C D


[Verse 1]
          G                           C
She was found in her bedroom with a note on the wall
        Em          D               G        C          Em
Saying take me or leave me, it don't matter now at all
        G                                 C
Her passing made the papers though there weren't much to say
       Em          D        G                C        Em
Just a girl of the night takes her life at midday


[Verse 2]
          G                        C
She was fond of the ladies and good to the men
              Em               D             G          C     Em
And she could take you 'bout anywhere that you'd never been
       G                         C
Though I never touched her we'd walk every day
       Em          D             G              C
Heading west down Sunset talking our lives away


[Chorus]
               D                       Am            Em
Said she could walk on the waterbed, shoot out the lights
            D                         C        G
Take you up to the limits, push you over the line
              D                       Am         Em  Bm7 Em
Said if you wanna see God, brother, close your eyes...
  C              G              D
This one's for Rhonda's last ride


[Verse 3]
         G         F               C
There's a town in Nevada, just across the state line
       Em         D         G        C      Em
Where Rhonda grew up ahead of her time
       G                           C
Why, if I had to say, it's her daddy to blame
      Em          D           G             C      Em
Old desert rat Cody set her childhood to flame


[Verse 4]
               G                       C
And there were GI's and truckers and ghosts of the road
          Em        D            G          C          Em
On their way up to Vegas they'd lighten their load
         G                        C
Yeah there was many a lover but nary complained
          Em       D         G            C
And it was many a man who'd call out her name


[Chorus]
       D                                Am          Em
Said she could walk on the waterbed, shoot out the lights
       D                     C                 G
Take you up to the limits, push you over the line
        D                             Am        Em Bm7 Em
Said if you wanna see God, brother, close your eyes...
       C         G             D
This one's for Rhonda's last ride


[Verse 5]
       G                       C
I'm not here to tell you she died out of shame
         Em         D            G            C     Em
In her last chosen moment, her lips cursed no name
          G                 C
Not Cody nor Jesus, not a cry out for love
     Em       D               G            C
She told me to tell you that leaving's enough


[Chorus]
     D                                 Am         Em
Yeah she could walk on the waterbed, shoot out the lights
      D                             C           G
Take you up to the limits, push you over the line
       D                                       Am         Em
Said if you wanna see God, you wanna see God, close your eyes...
      C              G               D
Yeah this one's for Rhonda's last ride
