West Texas In My Eye - The Panhandlers | Guitar Chords | VChords

[Verse 1]
---------------------
D
                                       A/C#    Bm  F#m
Lately I've been thinking I could leave   this town
                             A
Cut back on my drinking, stop this running round
        D                                    A/C#    Bm
Playing songs 'til after midnight, staying up   'til dawn
        F#m                                      A
There's something in the dust and wind that keeps me hanging on

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
      G                 A                  D               G
And I never thought I'd live to see the day I'd say goodbye
        Bm                  A           D
I ain't crying, that's west Texas in my eye

[Verse 2]
---------------------
     D                                        A/C#    Bm
I'll be your blue eyed bandit if you'll be my renegade
F#m                                   A
  I count a thousand tumbleweeds roll by me every day
    D                                       A/C#   Bm
I'd like to grow a rose and stow it in that desert safe
       F#m                              A
Like a message in a bottle floating down the open plains

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
          G           A        D                 G
Where the Llano Estacado rises up to meet the sky
        Bm                 A           D
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye

[Verse 3]
---------------------
     D                                        A/C#         Bm
I've seen the thunder heads descend and rip into the ground
    F#m                              A
The twisted hand of heaven spreading terror all around
    D                                         A/C#        Bm
Sending farmers in a deeper debt and ranchers to the grave
      F#m                              A
Where towers mark the end of time with slowly spinning blades

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
         G                A          D                  G
'Til the water table falls below the reach of human kind
        Bm                 A           D
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye

[Post-Chorus]

[Verse 4]
---------------------
                                       A/C#    Bm
Lately I've been thinking I could leave   this town
F#m                           A
  Cut back on my drinking and stop this running round
        D                                        A/C#  Bm
Playing songs 'til after midnight and staying up until dawn
           F#m                                        A
But there's  something in the dust and wind that keeps me hanging on

[Chorus (4)]
---------------------
      G                 A                  D              G
And I never thought I'd live to see the day I said goodbye
        Bm                 A           G
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye
        Bm                 A           D  G Bm A D
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye
