[VERSE 1]
Do [D]you remember Cactus Texas

Nothing but a wide place in the road

Eighteen wheelers never go there

Main Street's just too narrow for the load
A little tow[G]n of honest people
Some we haven't seen for quite aw[D]hile

I was young and restless
And we bot[A]h were full of dreams and runnin' w[D]ild

[VERSE 2]
We [D]left our old hometown and family

Barely had a nickel to our name

We were out to win the world

Not once looking back or losing aim
We hit the big[G] town and the big time
Not a lot of effort in the dea[D]l

But in the bargain we lost touch
With one another[A] and old feelings that were r[D]eal

[VERSE 3]
In [D]a big house up on easy street

Where too much never seems to be enough

We're not the same two people

Far away from all the days when the times were rough
Includ[G]ing you and i
Everything is separated by a wal[D]l

It's not something we can talk about
In fac[A]t we seldom even talk at all [D]

[VERSE 4]
I don't thin[G]k we realize
How or why we ever came this f[D]ar
[D]/
Let's go back to Cactus Texas
[A]/
Maybe once we're there
[D]/
We'll find out where we are
