(Intro)

    Em9                                 Em9sus Em9
Albuquerque will be there in the morning
       Cmaj9                                C Cmaj9
Purple mountains will rise up from the floor
      G/D                                  G/D+
After that you can just lift up the curtain
              Dsus4                       D
And the whole world will be there at your door

         Em9                                 Em9sus Em9
Down the road you see the heat waves a waving
        Cmaj9                            C Cmaj9
All the signs are telling you where to go
        G/D                           G/D+
And for you, this is a bold invitation
             Dsus4                    D
It's all you need, you don't need any more

Am                  C             Em7 Em9 D
   Those wheels are turning once again

        Em9                           Em9sus Em9
Now the sun is rising out of the ocean
       Cmaj9                            C Cmaj9
Diesel trucks are flying by on the shore
                G/D                           G/D+
Yes that's your spirit inside you just waiting
             Dsus4                        D
It's time to move, now that much you must know

        Em9                                  Em9sus Em9
Step outside and take a breath of the morning (step outside the door)
        Cmaj9                             C Cmaj9
And the wind will tell you which way to go
            G/D                              G/D+
You are the needle on the compass for certain
            Dsus4                     D
The missing map has come back to your door

Am                  C             Em7 Em9
   Those wheels are turning once again

C   D          D  G   Cmaj9         G   D
Thunder in the canyon waking up the night (waking up the night)
C     D            D      G           Em9     B7 B7
Black crow with an indigo glow on the highway

    Em9                                 Em9sus Em9
Albuquerque will be there in the morning
       Cmaj9                                C Cmaj9
Purple mountains will rise up from the floor
      G/D                                   G/D+
After that you can just lift up that curtain
              Dsus4                       D
And the whole world will be there at your door

   Those wheels are turning once again

Thunder in the canyon waking up the night (waking up the night)
C     D            D      G           Em9     B7 B7
Black crow with an indigo glow on the highway

C   D          D  G   Cmaj9         G   D
Barking in the canyon waking up the night
C     D            D      G           Cmaj9  G D
Black crow with an indigo glow on the highway

C     D          Em7     Em9     C   Em9 Em9sus Em
Those wheels are turning once again
C       D      Em7       Em9    C      B7 B7
They've always been your truest friend
