Sunrise and Sedona - original song at House Concert

I wrote the chorus to this sitting on Oak Creek early one morning. In this version, I was playing a house concert in Chicago. The song mentions Chicago.. gets some laughs at the start. Sunrise & Sedona Copyright (c) 2008 Matthew Moran She said it was sunrise and Sedona That made her lose her mind that way Caught somewhere between the river and red canyon walls And she said she didn't need it anyway Verse1: She hopped a West bound plane from Chicago Touched down in the heat of a desert storm Not quite sure, what she hoped to find But certain that she couldn't find it back at home Found sanctuary in the mountains Walking beside a clear, cold stream And there she swears, she kissed the face of God Spent the rest of the week like in a dream (chorus) Verse 2: Left the city an attorney Now she paints and serves coffee on the street And never regrets, the race of rats she's left Or the cold desperation beneath her feet Her momma thinks she might be crazy Her sister tried to talk her back today But when that morning sun spreads gold across the sky Sanity seems a small price to pay (chorus)
