Intro: 
A 

verse 1: 
A 
He fell in love with a reservation girl 
A 
During the time of the sugarbeat harvest 
A               D 
They moved out west to the coast where he built her a bed 
           A 
Made of shagbark from Sherwood forest 
               E 
And life was good until she told him goodbye 
                D 
Said they was better off living separate lives 
                A 
And maybe they was 

PreChorus: 
               D                 A 
But should we stop and take her with us 
            D                 A 
Should we stop and take her with us 
            D                 A 
Should we stop and take her with us 
             E 
For all our time 

verse 2: 
A 
We left Worcester with our boots and our bags 
A 
And America undressed herself in front of our eyes 
A          D 
My sister told me 
D           A 
My sister told me 
           E 
That the games in the hills where the hickory falls 
          D 
And you never know when you gonna run from it all 
          A 
Like she did 

PreChorus: 
               D                 A 
But should we stop and take her with us 
            D                 A 
Should we stop and take her with us 
            D                 A 
Should we stop and take her with us 
             E 
For all our time

Adelaide you know you're just no good for me 
              A   D   E                         D 
You know its just so hard to see that you were right

verse 3: 
A 
She was dangling her legs over the little Colorado river 
A 
Catching the last bit of sunlight in all of Arizona 
A    D                A  
Told me,  
D         A 
Arizona told me. 
E 
So I asked her if she wanted to fly 
     D 
If maybe she needed a ride 
         A 
Anywhere at all 

PreChorus: 
               D                 A 
But should we stop and take her with us 
            D                 A 
Should we stop and take her with us 
            D                 A 
Should we stop and take her with us 
             E 
For all our time
