G  
She was livin' in a cadillac
G  
Bedded down in the back seat
G                                                                                      D  
On a back street of the Hollywood hills
D  
With a shoebox museum of memories
D                                                         G  
Old photos and medical bills
G  
She'd been a great actress in two dozen movies
G                                                                 G7                            C  
Played Shakespeare on the great London stage
C                                                                              G  
Before the three husbands, six kids and bad breaks
G    D                                                              G  
Of fifty-eight odd years of age
G  
Him they called fat boy wore grey overalls
G                                                                                      D  
And he clocked in at four hundred pounds
D  
With a passion for food and film magazines
D                                                                         G  
He'd been a great critic downtown
G  
He'd seen all her movies, worshipped her face
G                                                 G7                         C  
Heard her story and took her on in
C                                                                                                 G  
Though she bore no resemblance to the star he adored
G                         D                                                      G                      G7  
The film's over before real life begins
G7    C  
She told him of a fountain of youth
C                                         D  
In the hot Texas earth
D            C  
It'll heal and renew us
C                                                                      D  
It's somewhere west of Fort Worth
D                 C  
And she met Errol Flynn there
C                                                    G              C  
In the Crazy Water Hotel
C                    Am  
And they danced down the street
Am            D                                                              C  
In the moonlight of old Mineral Wells
* * *G    (alternate between  320003  and  302003 )
G  
So they boarded a greyhound in search of the fountain
G                                                                    D  
Fat boy and the aging film queen
D  
Through the Great Painted Desert and all across Texas
D                                                      G  
Amarillo plain to Abilene
G  
They got off in Fort Worth for a fresh cup of coffee
G                                                 G7                         C  
Caught the local to old Mineral Wells
C                                                                                              G  
And it dropped them in front of that boarded up palace
G                         D                                 G  
Called the Crazy Water Hotel
G  
Disillusioned they found a cheap room off the highway
G                                                                         D  
Drank vodka from a styrofoam cup
D  
There'd be no healing return to the past
D                                                                                 G  
The fountain of youth had dried up
G  
So the critic and the film star held hands and drank vodka
G                                              G7                            C  
As the great Texas sun rose and fell
C                                                                                      G  
And drunk but still dreaming they waltzed down the street
G              D                                                              G                 G7  
In the moonlight of old Mineral Wells
* * *Repeat Chorus
C         Am  
They danced down the street
Am            D                                                              G            C    G    D    G  
In the moonlight of old Mineral Wells
