Chords for Tixis by Ratboys (Live at DZ Records)

[Bb] Here we go.
Oh, I [Gm]
couldn't quite _ [D] narrate my [Eb] passing fright
[Bb] Over losing [Gm] the fight [Cm] to [F] write [Eb] you
So _ [Bb] I [Gm] listened with hyper-conscious care
So [D] as to once more earn [Eb] the right to go there
[Bb] But something held [Gm] me down [Cm] to the mattress that I [F] stood on
[Bb] Moving on [Eb] to a land of broken tongues
Where [Cm] everyone is empty [Eb] but also [Bb] lives to fill each other
And knowing [Ab] that I [Eb] belong there, _ [Gm]
[Cm] the time has come to [Eb] go
There _ we go.
[Bb] To Texas. _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
_ [Eb] _ [Bb] _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
_ [Eb] _ [Bb] _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Bb] _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ Cross
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ through every pasture, give the hills [Bb] a shot
Wait [Eb] till now [Bb] it's after the judge [Eb] what you have got
And thankfully [F] I've been retold [Eb] that it makes [Ebm] total [Bb] nonsense to try [Ab] to know [Gm] the present
And I [Bb] just want to go to Texas
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _
Touch every county, let yourself [Bb] be lamb
[Eb] Open all the inches to help you understand
Never trying [Bbm] to justify [Eb] a listless sense [Bb] of longing [Eb] with any sort of weakness
[Gm] Just play the song and go to [Bb] Texas
_ _ _ [Gm] _
[Eb] And _ _ [Bb] feel right [Ab] now [Eb] the love that _ [Bb] feels nice
[Ab] It's all a part [F] of moving on [Eb] and growing older
[F] Let's make a pact [Eb] to hold each other [Bb] through
[Db] [Bb] And _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] often when it's quiet, my dreams put on a show
Gentle and defiant [E] of where we have to [Eb] go
But not in [Em] spite, I [Bb] leave my room and [Eb] step over [Bb] the fall
I'm too [Eb] far into a distance, [C] I'm [Bb] slowly on my way
[Eb] _
[Gm] _ _ _ [Eb] And _ _ [Bb] feel right [Ab] about the [Eb] love you _ feel
[Bb] _
[Ab] It's all a [Bb] part of moving [Eb] on and growing [Bb] older
Let's make a [Eb] pact to hold each other [Bb] through
_ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ [Eb] _ [Bb] _

_ [Eb] _ [Bb] _ _ [C] _ [Bb] _
_ [Ebm] [Bb] Thank [Ab] _ [Eb] _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _
you.
_ Next is the Avantist.
[Em] Then whatever else we're doing. _ _
Thanks. _ _ _ _ _
