Biografía:
James McMurtry, born March 18, 1962, Fort Worth, Texas, is an American rock and folk-rock/americana singer, songwriter, guitarist, bandleader and occasional actor (Daisy Miller, Lonesome Dove). He performs with veteran bandmates and rhythm section The Heartless Bastards.
His father, novelist Larry McMurtry, gave him his first guitar at age seven. His mother, an English professor, taught him how to play it: "My mother taught me three chords and the rest I just stole as I went along. I learned everything by ear or by watching people."

Song: Lost In The Backyard
Artist: James McMurtry
Album: Where'd You Hide The Body
Year: 1995
James McMurtry is a very underrated songwriter, and this is one of my favorite songs off
of the "Where'd You Hide The Body" album (which I highly recommend)
You'll definatly need to listen to the song to get the timing on the lyrics correct (the
chorus is tricky)
Have fun, this is a great song to play and sing at parties or around campfires or
something haha
Verse 1:
D
You said this is the last time
G
A few times ago
D
Once more its happened
A
Thats all in the world I know
Pre-Chorus 1:
D
I still hear the echo
G
When you hung up the phone
D
I feel like I'm lost in the backyard
A D
Just tryin' to get home
Verse 2:
I woke up in a strange world
I can aptly describe
Like the streets of a town where I lived
When I was too young to drive
Pre-Chorus 2:
It all looked so familiar
But I can't find my way
I must have got lost in the backyard
When I went out to play
Chorus:
A
Don't open my eyes
D
To nothin' like truth
G
Just leave it all lost in the wind
D A
Let it hide in the blindness of youth
D
Facts of the matter
G
Most likely will always remain
D
I guess I'll be lost in the backyard
A D
Till I get home again
-Guitar solo- (I usually just improv)
Chorus 2:
Don't open my eyes
To nothin' like truth
Just leave it all lost in the wind
Let it hide in the blindness of youth
Facts of the matter
Most likely will always remain
I'll probably be lost in the backyard
Till I get home again
