Somewhere Down In Texas
By Jason Boland

Capo 2

 
D
When I look south and see the storm clouds roll
                            Bm
On their way to old Mexico
                   G     A
I don't want to be alone
        D 
And the rays of light through my Shiner Bock bottle
                                                      Bm
Make me wanna turn the key and put down the throttle
        G         A D
And get lost down 3-5


When I get tied down by the ties that bind
It seems like I'm never gonna find the time
To do what I need
And that's to find me a place where I can think
Tlk about love, and laugh, and drink
And there's someone there who cares

Chorus:
G                           D
Cause no matter how big the storms
G                                   A
I know I can find me a place that's warm
           G           A        D
The sun is shining somewhere in Texas
Bm                     G    A
I hope it's shining on her
G         A       D
Somewhere down in Texas


In a place that big a man could get lost
Nevermind the time forget about the cost
There's more important things
She's somewhere smiling north of San Antone
I've got her number but I stare at the phone
Cause I still want to believe

Chorus

Bridge:
Bm           G              D
To hell with horoscopes and empty dreams
Bm                G           D               A
To hell with Valentino in his cut off pair of jeans
G                          A
Cause I know I can make it there
     G           A     Bm     
On a twelve pack and a prayer
