    Verse 1
    Arizona 
    Desert, 
    three 
    in 
    the 
    afternoon 

    No 
    place 
    for 
    me 
    to be, 

    twenty- 
    eighth 
    day 
    of June 

    I 
    see 
    lizards 
    crawling, 

    some 
    things 
    that 
    are 
    not 
    there 

    Sun 
    is 
    shining 
    so 
    damn 
    hot. 
    Lord, 

    I 
    can't 
    breathe 
    this 
    air 

    I'm 
    on 
    my 
    Verse 2
    way 
    from 
    L.A., and 

    back 
    to 
    Tennessee 

    I'm 
    stranded 
    in 
    the desert, 

    feels 
    like 
    the 
    devil's 
    got 
    me 

    Con
    vertible 
    is 
    slowing 
    down, 

    looks 
    like 
    a 
    Ca
    dillac 

    A 
    redhead 
    is 
    driv
    ing, 

    a blonde 
    is 
    sleeping 
    in 
    the back 

    A blonde's 
    sleeping 
    in 

    the back 

    Verse 3
    (Arizona desert, 

    three 
    in the 
    afternoon) 

    Verse 4
    She throws 
    me 
    the keys, 

    I 
    put 
    my 
    guitar 
    in 
    the trunk 

    Would 
    you 
    like 
    to drive? 
    She said, 

    "I'm 
    about 
    half 
    drunk" 

    She 
    handed 
    me 
    a can 
    of beer, 

    so 
    cold 
    it 
    hurt 
    my 
    hand 

    Oas
    is 
    in 
    the desert, 
    Lord, 

    I've 
    found 
    the 
    promised 
    land 

    Verse 5
    So 
    I 
    struck 
    out 
    down 
    the highway 

    with 
    my 
    big 
    foot 
    on 
    the gas 

    My 
    prayers 
    have all 
    been 
    answered, 

    now 
    my bad 
    luck's 
    in 
    the past 

    Looking 
    at 
    that 
    redhead, 

    I 
    can see 
    she ain't 
    no 
    slouch 

    And that 
    blonde 
    in 
    the back
    seat, 

    come 
    on now 
    and 
    shut 
    my 
    mouth 

    Come 
    on now 
    and 
    shut 

    my mouth 

    Verse 6

    Right down 
    this 
    hot 
    rock 
    silence, 

    after 
    a while 

    That's 
    when 
    I 
    first 
    noticed 
    that 

    redhead's wicked 
    smile 

    Why don't 
    you 
    pull 
    off 
    the road, 

    son? 
    We'll 
    find 
    us 
    a shade 

    Maybe 
    when 
    that scorching 
    sun 
    goes 
    down, 

    better 
    time 
    can 
    be 
    made 

    Verse 7
    Well 
    that's 
    how I 
    spend 
    the 
    afternoon, 

    28th day 
    of June 

    You 
    can bet 
    that's 
    not 
    one 

    I'll 
    be 
    forgetting 
    soon 

    By the 
    time 
    the sun 
    went 
    down, 

    me 
    and the red
    head 
    wrote 
    a book 

    When I 
    looked 
    around, 
    Lord, 

    the 
    blonde 
    was 
    waking 
    up 

    Hey, 
    the blonde 
    was 
    waking 

    up

    (Arizona desert, 
    three 
    in the afternoon) oh 

    Verse 8
    (Arizona desert, 


    three 
    in 
    the 
    afternoon) oh 
    my 
    God 

    (Arizona desert, 

    three 
    in 
    the afternoon) 

    (Arizona desert, 

    three 
    in 
    the 
    afternoon) 

    (Arizona desert, 

    Outro 1
    three 
    in 
    the afternoon)

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      "

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
