I think Jason might change keys at the bridge, he just lost 
me.  Corrections or changes are welcome.

Intro: D G Em A (2x ) 
 
D 
G 
When I look south and see the storm clouds roll, on their way to old Mexico 
Em                         A 
I don't want to be alone 
D 
The rays of light through my Shiner Bock? bottle make 
G 
Em                       A 
me wanna turn the key and put down the throttle and get lost down 35 
D                                                                   G 
When I get tied down by the ties that bind seems like I'm never gonna find 
the time 
Em                A 
to do what I need. 
D                                                                    G 
That's to find me a place where I can think, talk about love, laugh, and 
drink. 
Em                                               A 
And there's someone there who cares. 
 
Chorus 
G                                             A 
Cause no matter how big the storms 
G                                                      A 
I know I can find me a place that's warm. 
A                                                   D G 
The sun is shining somewhere in Texas; 
Em                             A                                        D G 
Em A 
I hope it's shining on her;  Somewhere down in Texas. 
 
 
 
D                                                            G 
In a place that big a man could get lost never mind the time forget about 
the cost. 
Em                                    A 
There's more important things. 
D                                                                        G 
Shes' somewhere smiling north of San Anton', I've got her number but I stare 
at the phone 
Em                            A 
Cause I still want to believe. 
 
 Chorus 
 
 
Bridge: 
 
 D                                           G 
To hell with horoscopes and empty dreams 
D                                             G 
to hell with Valentino in his cut-off pair of jeans. 
Em                                        A 
D G Em A 
Cause I know I can make it there on a twelve pack and a prayer. 
 
Chorus 
 
Outro: D G Em A (2x)
