[Verse 1]
C                      Bb
Maybe I'll go to Yuma, I still have his card
   C                           Bb
If he didn't change his number he could reclaim my heart
C                          Dm
Maybe I need the desert or maybe I just need him


[Chorus]
  Bb          C          Dm           C
I gave him Arizona and I took the California coast
Bb        C                  Dm              C
 Tired of borders, I'm going back to where I left my ghost
Bb                   Am                  Dm           C               Bb    Bb  B
 Don't know if I'll stay there but I'll stay until my heart gets broke


[Verse 2]
C                      Bb
Maybe I'll go to Yuma, see how a desert rat lives
C                             Bb
Hiding beneath the red rocks, me and the shade we forgive
C                            Dm
I know I truly loved him, I still can't brush off his dust


[Chorus]
  Bb          C          Dm           C
I gave him Arizona and I took the California coast
Bb        C                  Dm              C
 Tired of borders, I'm going back to where I left my ghost
Bb                   Am                  Dm           C
 Don't know if I'll stay there but I'll stay until my heart gets broke

[Verse 3]
C                        Bb
He used to chew tobacco, he used to drink my wine
C                             Bb
He never learned "I'm sorry", he never pressed rewind
C                        Dm
He was a wild coyote but he called me baby doll


[Chorus]
  Bb          C          Dm           C
I gave him Arizona and I took the California coast
Bb        C                  Dm              C
 Tired of borders, I'm going back to where I left my ghost
Bb                   Am                  Dm           C               Bb    Am
 Don't know if I'll stay there but I'll stay until my heart gets broke


[Outro]
          Dm                      C
There's a river that runs through Yuma
         Bb                      Am
He's the river that runs through me
          Dm                      C
There's a river that runs through Yuma
         Bb                      Am
He's the river that runs through me
          Dm                      C
There's a river that runs through Yuma
         Bb                      Am
He's the river that runs through me
          Dm                      C
There's a river that runs through Yuma
         Bb                      Am
He's the river that runs through me
          Dm                      C
There's a river that runs through Yuma
         Bb                      Am    Dm    C    Bb
He's the river that runs through me
