[G]
[C]
I pulled my truck off that dusty old highway, [G] walked into a roadside [C] cafe,
sat down at a table and ordered a cold beer, [G] took off my coat and [C] my hat.
At the next table over, an old man sipped whiskey [G] in silence, his eyes [C] nearly closed.
You could tell he was listening, on the stage in the [C] corner, [G] a cowboy sang out a [C] string of rhodes.
He said, I had a son years ago back in Houston, [G] they took him when his mama [C] died.
I'd play my old guitar, we'd sing it together, [G] and he smiled, tears in [C] his eyes.
Won't [F] you play that [C] Galveston Rhodes, [F] boy, [G] sing it once more just [C] for me.
[F] I've only heard one [C] other sing it like you, [G] will you do it once more for [C] me please.
[G]
[G] [C]
[A]
[D] The cowboy said, yes sir, I'll sing it again, [Bm] cause [A] I see that it's special to [D] you.
Ain't it funny, but of all the songs that I sing, you [A] know that one's my favorite [D] too.
See I lost my daddy a long time ago, [A] and I was just barely [D] a kid,
but I still recall how we'd sing it together, I [A] still do it the way that [D] he did.
[E] So [G] I'll sing it for you and [D] for my daddy [Bm] too, [A] what became of him God only [D] knows.
[G] Thank you for asking [D] kind sir, said the cowboy, [A] he sang the [E] [D] Galveston Rhodes.
[B]
[D] Now I don't have to tell you the rest of [A] this story, I'm sure that you [D] know how it goes.
I know how a lonely old man and his son found each other, [A] in the words of the Galveston [D] Rhodes.
[G] Well I finished my beer and [D] I pushed back my [B] chair [A] and headed back out [D] on the road.
[G] While back in that cafe [D] a boy and his daddy [A] were singing the [D] Galveston Rhodes.
Down in old southern Texas [G] I wandered one day.
[A]
