I met her up in Helena, at the state mental

                       G
She was put there by a judge, boys, I was put
             Am
there by the same.
                       C                            Am
Just one look into her green eyes, Catalina she was all mine.

She told me of her paradise, called it

We both knew we were cured, no matter about

the judges word.

On that first day of summer, we made our
Am
escape.
                     C
Running through that June night, with them
             Am
stars as our only light.
                              G
She said that every star that falls, boy, lands in
             Am
Resurrection Bay.

So me and Catalina, we hitchhiked to Alaska.

All through them drunken forests, up that
      Am
Alcan Highway.
                    C                    Am
Made it down to the Kenai, on the 4th of July.

Made love under the exploding skies of

Resurrection Bay.

Verse 4:
                   G
But Catalina was a strange girl, not long for
     Am
this world.
                         G
Why they"d put her up in Helena, she would
    Am
not say.
                          C
She was in love with that water, like a mother
     Am
to a daughter.
                              G
I watched her smiling face go under, from the

                          G
Now I ain"t nothing but a stranger moving

south through your country.
                           G
I"ve been eating from your orange groves I"ve
                           Am
been sleeping through your days.
                     C
At night I watch the black sky, see them stars
   Am
go shooting by.
                            G
I know that every star that falls lands in
             Am
Resurrection Bay.
