We're rolling.
We're [B] ready, guys.
[F#m]
[B] [Bm] [B]
[D]
[F#m]
[Bm] [C#m] [B] [D]
[Bm] [D] The
[E]
[F#m] fire, it stands a [D]-blazing quick.
The smoke, it pours out [F#m] honey thick.
[C#m] [E] Down in the lonesome draw,
The moon's all stared at [B]
[A] midnight's jaws.
[F#] The [F#m] kingdom [E] of the [D] great prairie
Is home to [F] you and [F#m] home to me.
[B] [E] Born in [B] Whittingham and Hall,
[F#m] [Bm]
Shattered [B] like old Dempsey's [A] jaw.
[F#m]
Railroad men [E] go bush [D] and west,
The scar laid out on mother's [G#] breast.
[F#m] What [E] brings liquor [C#m] and what [D]
brings gold
It bears a young and saves the [A] old.
[F#m] It's a short time here [E] and a long [D] time gone.
The workmen sing the [D#] people's song.
[F#m] [C#m]
Down in the [D] lonesome draw,
The sun it [B] bakes the rawhide [A] raw.
[D] If you don't [A] like Dodge, you [E] can always go to [A] Abilene.
[A] I hear the Giddens plenty and [E] the grass is [A] always green.
You can always head to Kansas City where they [E] played all of their roles.
But the vices flow like the [E] Ohio and the governor's [A] on parole.
[F#m] [B]
[D]
[B] [F#]
[C#m]
[D]
[A] [E]
[F#m] The heart lies on a high [D]
plateau.
The Texas bull stands lowing [F#m] low.
[C#m] The river's meant to [B] separate,
[D]
But it just unites the border [A]
state.
[F#m] No one [E] still can [D] understand.
Life is like in the [F#] borderland.
[D#m] [F#m]
[C#m] So here's to the great [D] expanse.
Where every day's a poisonous [A] dance.
[B] If you don't [A] like Dodge, you can [E] always go to [A] Abilene.
[B] I hear the Giddens [A] plenty and [E] the grass is [A] always green.
You can always head to Kansas City where they [E] played all of [A] their [B] roles.
But the vices [A] flow like the Ohio and [E] the governor's on [B] parole.
