[CHORUS]
La[D]tely I’ve been thinking I could leave this t[Bm]own
[F#m]Cut back on my drinking, s[A]top this running round
Pla[D]ying songs 'til after midnight, staying up 'til [Bm]dawn
There’s so[F#m]mething in the dust and wind that k[A]eeps me hanging on
And I ne[G]ver thought I’d l[A]ive to see the d[D]ay I’d say goodb[G]ye
I ain’t cr[Bm]ying, that’s west Te[A]xas in my e[D]ye
[VERSE]
I’[D]ll be your blue eyed bandit if you’ll be my ren[Bm]egade
I c[F#m]ount a thousand tumbleweeds roll [A]by me everyday
I’d l[D]ike to grow a rose and stow it in that desert s[Bm]age
Like a me[F#m]ssage in a bottle floating d[A]own the open plains
Where the Ll[G]ano Esta[A]cado rises [D]up to meet the s[G]ky
I ain’t cr[Bm]ying that’s west Te[A]xas in my e[D]ye
[VERSE]
I’ve s[D]een the thunderheads descend and rip into the gro[Bm]und
The tw[F#m]isted hand of heaven spreading te[A]rror all around
Sen[D]ding farmers into deeper debt and ranchers to the gr[Bm]ave
Where to[F#m]wers mark the end of time with sl[A]owly spinning blades
'Til the wa[G]ter table fa[A]lls below the re[D]ach of huma[G]nkind
I ain’t cr[Bm]ying that’s west Te[A]xas in my e[D]ye
[INTERLUDE]

[CHORUS]
La[D]tely I’ve been thinking I could leave this t[Bm]own
[F#m]Cut back on my drinking and s[A]top this running round
Pla[D]ying songs til after midnight and staying up until d[Bm]awn
But there’s som[F#m]ething in the dust and wind that ke[A]eps me hanging on
And I ne[G]ver thought I’d l[A]ive to see the d[D]ay I said goo[G]dbye
I ain’t cry[Bm]ing that’s west Te[A]xas in my e[G]ye
I ain’t cry[Bm]ing that’s west Te[A]xas in my e[D]ye
[Outro] [G] [Bm] [A] [D]
La[D]tely I’ve been thinking I could leave this t[Bm]own
