Great Divide Jack Ingram
Capo 2
[D]They still listen to high school football
On the [F#m]radio in West Texas
[Bm]The lights still shine bright
Every [A]Friday Night
And you can drive [D]90 miles an hour
Down the [F#m]highway straight through Sisco
[Bm]The cops are at the ball game, its [A]gettin' tight
And the [G]sky gets wider and wider
[D/F#]You disappear like the day
Em A D (pick up tempo)
Into the Great Divide you fade away
[D]It's another world all together
In the [F#m]middle of God's country
Smells l[Bm]ike money, smells like s**t, yea it [A]smells like hell
But when the cattle's all together
And the [F#m]pump-jacks all are movin'
And the [Bm]cotton's all in bloom
And it smells like [A]nothin' else
And the [G]sky gets wider and wider
[D/F#]Just like a brand new day
[Em]Out in the Great Div[A]ide you fade aw[D]ay
It's the [G]land---[D/F#] of my [Em]people
[A]Dreamers come out here to find a [G]bigger [A]piece of [D]sky
It's all the[G] winne[D/F#]rs--- and all the[Em] losers
Real good [A]people, [G]just like [A]you and [D]I
[D]Yeah but nothin's really changed much
As you [F#m]drive down I-20
[Bm]Mexicans still work out in the [A]field
And [D]everybody's dirty
Man, their [F#m]all just a bunch of gamblers
And [Bm]some got rich, but t[A]hey're gamblers still
And the [G]sky gets wider and wider
[D/F#]Today's gonna be your day
[Em]Out in the Great Di[A]vide you fade away
It's the [G]land---[D/F#] of my [Em]people
[A]Dreamers come out here to find a [G]bigger [A]piece of [D]sky
It's all the[G] winne[D/F#]rs--- and all the[Em] losers
Real good [A]people, [G]just like [A]you and [D]I
[D]They still listen to high school football
On the [F#m]radio in West Texas
[Bm]The lights still shine bright
Every [A5]Friday Night
