INTRO: D  G 
 
D                               D9 D 
Shandy was somebody's daughter 
G                    D 
Driving to something insane 
A7                    
They busted her crossin the border 
G                   D 
Swift as a sniff of cocaine 
 
 
D                               D9 D 
All she could pay was attention 
    G                           D 
So all they could take was her time 
A7                 
Proving an ounce of possession 
G                            D 
Ain't worth a piece of your mind 
 

        G              D         G   D 
'Cause nightmares are somebody's daydreams 
G               A         D 
Daydreams are somebody's lies 
G               D           G         D 
Lies ain't no harder than telling the truth 
G             D         A7 G D 
Truth is the perfect disguise  
 
Locked in the gold-handled bathroom 
Martin was chaning his mind 
Shedding his humble pretentions 
One careful toke at a time 
And wiping the mask off the man in the mirror 
Who really was Billy the Kid 
Smilin at somebody dyin 
For something that he never did 
 
CHORUS 
 
Soon as he sat down beside her 
Shining like Saturday night 
Shandy was his for the savin 
Sweet as she looked in the light 
And maybe they moved from the bar to the bedroom 
Maybe just stood there instead 
Martin woke up and screamin 
Dreamin of blood on the bed 
 
CHORUS
