David Francey - Blue Heart Of Texas
CAPO: 5th fret
INTRO: G C F G C
F
Flew in from the east
C
Turned my back on the night
G
Blew in on the wind
At the crack of daylight
F
And I landed in Austin
C
Got off of the plane
G
In the blue heart of Texas
F C
It's pouring down rain
F
And you shouldn't matter
C
You're not my concern
G
You're none of my business
That's a lesson I learned
F
But I just checked my mailbox
C
No letter again
G
In the blue heart of Texas
F C
It's pouring down rain
CHORUS:
G
Every time that I stop
F
I look for your name
G
In the messages waiting
F
I'm waiting in vain
G
And a word to the wise
F C
Is wasted on me
G
In the blue heart of Texas
I'm as blue as can be
INSTRUMENTAL: C F G C F G C
F
And the thunderheads roll in
C
And darken the sky
G
And I think about you
And I don't know why
F
My mind it's a mess, man
C
It's a runaway train
G
In the blue heart of Texas
F C
It's pouring down rain
CHORUS:
G
Every time that I stop
F
I look for your name
G
In the messages waiting
F
I'm waiting in vain
G
And a word to the wise
F C
Is wasted on me
G
In the blue heart of Texas
I'm as blue as can be
