Ft. Worth Blues Steve Earle
intro: A A
[A]In Ft. Worth al[Aadd4]l the neon's burni[A]n' bright
Pretty[E] lights red and[A] blue
[A]But they'd shu[Aadd4]t down all the honky ton[A]ks tonight
And say a pr[E]ayer or two[A] if they only knew
[A]You used to [Aadd4]say the highway[A] was your home
G#ut [E]we both know[A] that ain't true
[A]It's just t[Aadd4]he only p[A]lace a man can go
When he[E] don't know where[A] he's travelin' too.
Chorus:
[D]But Col[E]orado's al[A]ways clean and healin'
An[D]d Tenne[E]ssee in Sp[A]ring is green and cool
It never real[Aadd4]ly was yo[A]ur kind of town
But you w[E]ent around with[A] the Ft. Worth Blues
Somewhere up beyond the great divide
Where the sky is wide and the clouds are few
F# man can see his way clear to the light
Just hold on tight, that's all you gotta do
Chorus:
And they say Texas weather's always changin'
And one thing change'll bring is somethin' new
And Houston really ain't that bad a town
So you hang around with the Ft. Worth Blues
There's a full moon over Galway Bay tonight
Silver light over green and blue
And every place I travel through, I find
Some kinda sign that you've been through
Chorus:
G#ut F#msterdam was always good for grieving
And London never fails to leave me blue
Paris never was my kinda town
So I walked around with the Ft. Worth Blues
