[Verse 1]
G
There's a place I know where we all 
go,
  C                    Am
A little ways down the road,
         D
It ain't far from here, we like to 
sit and drink beer,
     C   D             G
Play dominoes and tell jokes.
G
Folks been stopping by since ’49,
C                   Am
Eighteen Hundred, I mean!
      D
Ain't nothing fancy, just kids and 
ranches and
C           D          G
Clean white shirts and jeans!


[Chorus]
C               D      G  
Lots of smiling faces, little 
                      Em
children running around,
C           D              C    
Everybody's somebody in an old 
    D       G
hill country town!
C             D             
Dirt daubbers humming, see the 
   G                    Em
stickleburrs on your sockS,
C             D                  
Sure sign you spent some time in 
C         D    G
beautiful Lukenbach!


[Verse 2]
G
Well, let me tell you now all about 
the town . . .
C              Am
How it came to be
Continúa después del anuncio
       D           Am
In the 1800's they came in buggys
   C        D             G
To meet and trade and buy feed.
               G
They built the blacksmith's shop, 
then later on
     C                Am
They added the cotton gin. . .
        D                  Am
But the old dance hall and general 
store’s
         C     D        G
Where it all begins and ends!


[Chorus]
C               D      G  
Lots of smiling faces, little 
                      Em
children running around,
C           D              C    
Everybody's somebody in an old 
    D       G
hill country town!
C             D             
Dirt daubbers humming, see the 
   G                    Em
stickleburrs on your socks,
C             D                  
Sure sign you spent some time in 
C         D    G

[Verse 3]
G
In the 1950's people moved to 
cities,
C                Am
Leaving it all behind
D                  Am
Luckenbach closed  down for good,
        C         D      G
It just fell on a harder time
G
One day Hondo, driving by,
C               Am
Wished he had a beer
      D                       Am
So he bought the place and he opened
 it up
       C      D         G
That's reason we're all here


[Chorus]
C               D      G  
Lots of smiling faces, little 
                      Em
children running around,
C           D              C    
Everybody's somebody in an old 
    D       G

C             D
