From a phone booth in Vegas Jessie calls at five a.m.
Dsus2                 em7   (D)    G    Dsus2
To tell me that she's tired   of all of them
         D               em7   (D)        G                Dsus2
She says 'Baby I've been thinking about a trailer by the sea
D            em7 (D) G                  Asus4 A
We can go to Mexico: you, the cat, and me
            bm   A              G
We drink tequila   and look for sea-shells
            bm      A           G
Now         doesn't that sound  sweet
bm                 G
Jessie, you always do this
G                          A   G   A   G A
Everytime I get back on my feet

*: this here actually collides with the first note of the intro,
   but you can insert a measure of silence

Jessie, paint your pictures, about how it's gonna be
By now I should know better
Your dreams are never free
But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea
Jessie you can always sell any dream to me
Jessie you can always sell any dream to me

She asks me how the cat's been, I say Moses, he's just fine
He used to think about you all the time
We finally took your pictures down from the wall
Jessie how do you always seem to know just when to call?
She says get your stuff together
Bring Mose' and drive real fast
And listening to her promise
I swear to God this time it's gonna last

Jessie, paint your pictures, about how it's gonna be
By now I should know better; your dreams are never free
But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea
Jessie you can always sell any dream to me
Jessie you can always sell any dream to me

  bm       A       G
I love you in the sunshine
        bm          A          G
Lay you down in the warm white sand
    bm              G
And who knows maybe this time
G                                      A   G   A   G A
Things may turn out just the way you planned

Jessie, paint your pictures, about how it's gonna be
By now I should know better; your dreams are never free
But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea
Jessie you can always sell any dream to me
Jessie you can always sell any dream to me
