      Originally tabbed for The Neil Young Song Book Project www.songx.se by:
John Rosenfelder (earbender[at]earthlink.net)
Wolfgang Deimel (wolfgang[at]mailer.kjp.uni-marburg.de)
Alan DerKazarian (aderkazarian[at]mbln1.mbln.lib.ma.us)

This gives his first chord played a weird Em/D sound. 
Believe it or not, I'm pretty sure the first Em bar of the song has five beats to it (5/4, 
maybe 5/8), and that the second D bar has three beats (3/4?).  
This repeats for the third and fourth bars but then rights itself to 4/4 time 
for the rest of the song.

          Em             D 
Well they say that Santa Fe 
     Em               D 
it's less than ninety miles away 
         Em          G                  A 
and i've got time to roll a number and rent a car 
   G       Em      D 
Oh Al[aaaalll  - buquerque 

     
     Em          D
I've been flying down the road 
         Em            D
and I've been starving to be alone 
            Em       G          A 
Independent from the scene that I've known 
   G       Em      D 
Oh Al[aaaalll  - buquerque   

Instrumental & harmonica solo and pedal steel solo
  
        Em          D
So I'll stop when I can 
     Em                  D
Find some fried eggs and country ham
     Em                   G                   A
I'll find somewhere where they don't care who I am. 
   G            Em      D 
Oh Alaaaalll  - buquerque 
Repeat last line a few times and fade
