Muddy Texas Road

A# F/A Gm7 D# I can feel my pulse quicken As I cross that Texas line A# F/A Gm7 D# Wonder if it looks different, Than the way that I remember in my mind. Cm F7 Thirty years ago I caught a plane Cm F7 Off to join Uncle Sam's Marines Cm F7 Left my family and my small town dreams Cm F7 A# F/A Gm7 D# Down that Muddy Texas Road. A# F/A Gm7 D# The city limit sign still reads the same But there's more folks moving out than moving in A# F/A Gm7 D# Ain't too many kids out cruising Grand, Wish you could have seen it way back then. Cm F7 'Cause Friday nights we'd all wash our trucks Cm F7 Head to town just to try our luck Cm F7 We'd end up somewhere where we'd all get stuck Cm F7 A# A#7 Down some Muddy Texas Road. D# F7 Gm D# F7 Gm I can hear my buddies sayin' that they just can't wait to leave it all behind D# F7 A# F/A Gm What I wouldn't give to sit and pass around that jug of Jack Cm F7 And listen to 'em laughing one more time A# F/A Gm7 D# I can feel my pulse quicken Northbound as I cross that Texas line A# F/A Gm7 D# And just like I did years ago, it's time to leave it all behind Cm F7 It's time to go, I've gotta catch a plane Cm F7 My timings right 'cause it's about to rain. Cm F7 Some things change but most things stay the same Cm F7 A# F/A Gm7 D# Down them Muddy Texas Roads.
