Leavin Texas

Intro:  G  C  (3x)

          G                  C    
Well now Texas, I am just a little
           G
 lost and beaten' down
             Em                 C 
Hell like a morning star thats 
               D
ahead of me I am fadin' out
          C      Am7/B   Am      
But If I make it to the borders 
        G    Em
of that Rio Grande
             C                    D 
                 C (1 measure) G
Guess I can make it for one last 
sunset 'cross the prarie


 G          C                     
Texas this morning the sounds they
       G
 just sing to me
              Em                
'cause I am alive again and with 
 C               D
every footstep sett'n me free

   C  Am7/B   Am                 
If I keep my smile in touch with 
         G             Em
you the good times we spent in those
 hills
          C            D          
They will always be a part of me 
     C          D     G
as I live in my Texas Memory



CHORUS:

    C    Am7/B        Am         
Oh Texas I am just a little lost 
     G
and beatn' down
               Em               
but like that morning star thats 
   C                 D
ahead of me that's fadin' out
               C     Am7/B    Am 
I just hope I make it to the 
            G    Em
borders of the Rio Grande
          C                 D     
So I can catch me one last sunset 
             C           G
across the Prarie


G  O  (same as chorus except last 
line is like last line of 2nd verse)

G                            C   
I see everything seems to be 
             G
movin on so I am movin on
        Em           C            
I don't deny I get a loneliness 
   D
that comes sometimes
            C                
and all the miles and all the 
 Am               G            
footsteps going down aint' how I 
          Em
keep a count,
          C      D             
for every lonely stretch where I 
       C             D    G
just kept on for keepin' on.
