This is an adjustment I made to the posting already on cowpie by [email protected]. I think Jason might change keys at the bridge, he just lost me. Corrections or changes are welcome. Somewhere Down in Texas Written By Jason Boland Artist Jason Boland and the Stragglers Cd Pearl Snaps >From [email protected]. Intro: D G Em A (2x ) D G When I look south and see the storm clouds roll, on their way to old Mexico Em A I don't want to be alone D The rays of light through my Shiner Bock? bottle make G Em A me wanna turn the key and put down the throttle and get lost down 35 D G When I get tied down by the ties that bind seems like I'm never gonna find the time Em A to do what I need. D G That's to find me a place where I can think, talk about love, laugh, and drink. Em A And there's someone there who cares. Chorus G A Cause no matter how big the storms G A I know I can find me a place that's warm. A D G The sun is shining somewhere in Texas; Em A D G Em A I hope it's shining on her; Somewhere down in Texas. D G In a place that big a man could get lost never mind the time forget about the cost. Em A There's more important things. D G Shes' somewhere smiling north of San Anton', I've got her number but I stare at the phone Em A Cause I still want to believe. Chorus Bridge: D G To hell with horoscopes and empty dreams D G to hell with Valentino in his cut-off pair of jeans. Em A D G Em A Cause I know I can make it there on a twelve pack and a prayer. Chorus Outro: D G Em A (2x)
