Verse 1
D
It
was the middle of Montana
Bm
on a cold October night
A
G
when our van pulled up outside
A
D
the door.
A
We've been three months on the road
D
Bm
and 400 miles that day.
G
but we loaded our stuff out
A
D
on the floor.
G
Well, it was Jack on the guitar
D
and Bill on the bass.
A
Tom on the lonesome steel.
D
G
D
And I played the fiddle around the place.
G
A
D
And there was Walker behind the wheel
Well, the crowd was with us that night
Bm
A
Dancers stepped up high and around
G
We played like we hadn't
A
D
played in a while
At the end of the evening, you know
Even the management was pleased
Bm
A
D
So afterwards we all hit the
G
A
D
bar with a smile
G
When this guy full of whiskey
D
comes over to me
A
He says with a look in his eye,
D
A
I can see by your tags
G
D
you're from Texas, boy.
G
A
D
Brother, well, so am I.
G
Tell me, do the bluebonnets carpet
D
the fields in the spring?
A
Does the brises still run to the sea?
D
Does the sun still shine down
G
on those Texas girls?
D
Bm
G
A
D
Once one gave her love to me
You see, son, there was a time
Bm
when my song was just as sweet as yours
A
G
And I traveled and I
A
D
worked with the best
But day after day,
A
Bm
well, it got to be year after year
A
And finally, the road gives
G
A
D
you no time to rest
G
D
The runaway dreams put a rope to my soul
The nights took my company
A
D
Then the gin got the lyrics
G
D
to most of my songs
G
A
And the age took my memory
D
G
But tell me, do the bluebonnets carpet
D
the fields in the spring?
A
Does the brises still run to the sea?
D
And does the sun still shine down
G
on those Texas girls
D
G
A
D
Once one gave her love to me?
G
D
A
D
G
D
A
D
G
So I guess I see a lot of myself
in you and your friends here.
D
G
I see the po et, I see the clown,
A
D
sometimes the king.
But just you take care of yourself.
Try not to end up like me
G
with a whole lot of empty dreams
A
D
and no song to sing.
G
Well, I didn't mean to
go preaching to you.
D
A
Let me buy you a beer.
D
A
D
I guess I've spent much
too much time
A
talking alone.
D
You really are pretty good in that fiddle,
G
from what I can hear.
D
G
A
D
You paint me a picture of home,
G
you tell me do the bluebonnets carpet
D
the fields in the spring,
A
does the prizes still run to the sea,
D
does the sun still shine down
D
Bm
G
A
D
One swan gave her love to me
G
Near the blue modest carpet
D
that feels in the spring
A
As the prizes still run to sea
D
Does the sun still shine down
G
on those Texas girls
D
G
A
D
One swan gave her love to me
G
Now it's jack on the guitar
D
and bell on the bass
A
and Tom on the lonesome steed.
D
G
D
And I play the fiddle around the place,
G
A
and it's Walker behind the
G
D
wheel.
