Chords in this song
Strum
D-DU-UDU
When I look south and see the storm clouds roll,
on their way to old Mexico
I don't want to be alone
The rays of light through my Shiner Bock bottle
make me wanna turn the key and put down the throttle
and get lost down 35
( ) then back to verse chords
When I get tied down by the ties that bind
seems like I'm never gonna find the time
to do what I need.
That's to find me a place where I think
talk about love,laugh, and drink.
And there's someone there who cares.
Cause no matter how big the storms
I know I can find me a place that's warm.
The sun is shining somewhere in Texas.Ê
I hope it's shining on her
somewhere down in Texas.
In a place that big a man could get lost
never mind the time forget about the cost.
There's more important things.
Shes' somewhere smiling north of San Antone
I've got her number but I stare at the phone.
Cause I still want to believe.
Chorus
To hell with horoscopes and empty dreams
to hell with Valentino in his cut pair of jeans.
Cause I know I can make it there
on a twelve pack and a prayer.
