Intro(Twice) C F C G
But when I met Juanita She pulled my heart away
We packed up and left for Texas Ain’t been back since that day
So we built ourselves a homestead As far as the eye could see
But sometimes in the evenings
These thoughts come back to me.
Repeat Chorus
And we lived our life in Austin And the past I let it go
Left the gamblers and their ladies
And the whores I used to know.
So I never did go back there Never felt the need I guess
Just to stir up old emotions Can’t serve no point I guess
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Chorus
Repeat
Hard (Dm) times...That (G) I don’t understand (C)
Intro(Four Times) C F C G
