Lyrics

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

[Chorus]
      F                 G                  C               F
And I never thought I'd live to see the day I'd say goodbye
        Am
I ain't crying,
            G           C
that's west Texas in my eye

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

[Chorus]
          F           G        C                 F
Where the Llano Estacado rises up to meet the sky
        Am                 G           C
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye

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

[Chorus]
         F                G          C                  F
'Til the water table falls below the reach of human kind
        Am                 G           C
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye

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

[Chorus]
      F                 G                  C              F
And I never thought I'd live to see the day I said goodbye
        Am                 G           F
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye
        Am                 G           C  F Am G C
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye
