CAPO: 5th fret
INTRO: G C F G C
Flew [F]in from the east
Turned my [C]back on the night
Blew [G]in on the wind
At the crack of daylight
And I [F]landed in Austin
Got [C]off of the plane
In the [G]blue heart of Texas
It's [F]pouring down [C]rain
And [F]you shouldn't matter
You're [C]not my concern
You're [G]none of my business
That's a lesson I learned
But I [F]just checked my mailbox
No [C]letter again
In the [G]blue heart of Texas
It's [F]pouring down [C]rain
CHORUS:
Every [G]time that I stop
I [F]look for your name
In the [G]messages waiting
I'm [F]waiting in vain
And a [G]word to the wise
Is [F]wasted on [C]me
In the [G]blue heart of Texas
I'm as blue as can be
INSTRUMENTAL: C F G C F G C
And the [F]thunderheads roll in
And [C]darken the sky
And [G]I think about you
And I don't know why
My [F]mind it's a mess, man
It's a [C]runaway train
In the [G]blue heart of Texas
It's [F]pouring down [C]rain
CHORUS:
Every [G]time that I stop
I [F]look for your name
In the [G]messages waiting
I'm [F]waiting in vain
And a [G]word to the wise
Is [F]wasted on [C]me
In the [G]blue heart of Texas
I'm as blue as can be
