[VERSE 1]
C F C G C C7
I dreamed that I was flying above the glittering world,

The scream of grinding metal, 40 cars piling up
[CHORUS]
F C E Am G
Nothing rusts in the desert. The air is full of ghosts
F C G C C7
Cliffs painted with the old gods, rabbit brush full of bones
F C G Am G
Oh, Coronado, king of dust, the desert never cared what you saw

when you stared into the sun

but there are no golden cities, only trailer parks and dust,

and angels only fly here when you drive into the sun

Oh, Coronado, king of dust, the desert never cared what you saw
F Fm C
when you stared into the sun
