Leave the waves of [D] Galveston, but only if you can
[Em] the seawall, [D] gently folded in the sand
Papa left you for heaven after your mama lost her song
[D] no one stays there very long
[D]
There's a graveyard by the pizza parlor, a gate that only closes
[G] secrets, [D] no one really wants to know
The climbing moon's always shining on the kind of shells you keep
[Em] the seawall, [D] gently folded in the sand
Papa left you for heaven after your mama lost her song
[D] no one stays there very long
[D]
There's a graveyard by the pizza parlor, a gate that only closes
[G] secrets, [D] no one really wants to know
The climbing moon's always shining on the kind of shells you keep

_ _ _ Leave the waves of [D] Galveston, but only if you can
Cause you've been [G] hid behind [Em] the seawall, [D] gently folded in the sand _
Papa left you for heaven after your mama lost her song
And though [G] your baby left you for Houston, [D] no one stays there very long _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ There's a graveyard by the pizza parlor, a gate that only closes
Snowbirds fly away like [G] secrets, [D] no one really wants to know
The climbing moon's always shining on the kind of shells you keep
The [G] broken horse tied to the water [D]
tower's running in his sleep
_ [A] _ _ _
It's [G] too bad _ that [Gm] you ain't [F#m] got a soft [Em] place to fall _
[Bm] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [G] It's too _ bad _ [Gm] Texas leans to [F#m] the least [G] of us _ _ all
[A] _
_ _ _ [D] And says, if you can make the music, you can have the dance
If you can shoot the pistol, [D] you can wear the pants _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
So leave the waves of Galveston, but only if you can
[G] Cause it's the only place the Lone Star [D] kind of offered you a hand
_ Your baby left you nothing, but a dog she left for dead
[G] You never knew you were a burden, [D] till it hit you on the head
_ [A] _ _ _ It's [D] too bad _ [Gm] that you ain't got [F#m] a soft [Em] place to fall
_ _ _ [A] _
_ _ And it's [G] too bad _ _ [Gm] Texas leans [F#m] to the least [Em] of us _ [E] _ all
[A] _ _ _
_ And [D] says, if you can make the music, you can have the dance
Cause if you can shoot the pistol, you can wear the pants
