“Arizona”
Verse 1
Sunrise spilling over Camelback red
Coffee in my cup and a sky overhead
Dust on the dashboard, heat in the air
Cactus on the roadside like they’ve always been there
From the old Route 66 to the neon downtown
Little roadside diners in a one-stop town
Red rocks glowing like they’re lit from inside
Every mile out here feels a little more alive
Pre-Chorus
Yeah the desert’s got a heartbeat
You can feel it in your bones
Wide-open kind of freedom
That can make a place feel like home
Chorus
Oh, Arizona
Burning gold under a blue sky forever
Arizona
Hot nights, cool drinks, and we’re all in together
From the canyons to the city lights
To the stars in the middle of the night
You don’t know ya love her till you’re gone
Oh, Arizona
Yeah, Arizona
Verse 2
Monsoon rolling in like a drumline band
Lightning writing stories across the land
Pool water shining in the July heat
Music from a patio out into the street
Sedona red, Tucson slow
Flagstaff pines when the cool winds blow
Phoenix buzzing when the sun goes down
And a thousand little sunsets all over this town
Pre-Chorus
Yeah the desert’s got a wild side
But it’ll hold you if you stay
A little rough around the edges
In the most beautiful way
Chorus
Oh, Arizona
Burning gold under a blue sky forever
Arizona
Hot nights, cool drinks, and we’re all in together
From the canyons to the city lights
To the stars in the middle of the night
You don’t know ya love her till you’re gone
Oh, Arizona
Yeah, Arizona
Bridge
There’s a peace out in the silence
There’s a fire in the stone
There’s a feeling when the sun drops low
That says you’re exactly where you belong
Final Chorus
Oh, Arizona
Golden hour never really ends, does it?
Arizona
Every highway, every halo, every memory in it
From the desert bloom after the rain
To the old west ghosts and the mountain range
Yeah I’ll keep carrying you in every song
Oh, Arizona
Sweet Arizona
Yeah, Arizona
