E                D       A         E    Esus 
Leaving you girl heading down the road 
E                        D      A     E   Esus 
You left me many burdens such a heavy load 
                 B                 A 
And it sure does wig me out when I think about 
          E  Esus E 
What went down 
E          D     A        E  Esus E 
Crossroads of my life was here 
E                D        A          E 
When a phase can begin to wreck your life 
         B 
Roll on thru my mind 
       A                               E  Esus E 
Till I have the time to concentrate on you 
E       A 
You can teach me lots of lessons 
        E 
You can bring me lots of gold 
         A 
But you just can't live in Texas 
       E                  B 
If you don't have lots of soul 
E                D       A         E   Esus  E 
Leaving you girl for the very last time 
E                D      A          E 
Leaving you girl really blown your mind 
               B 
And where your living now 
        A                              E   Esus  E 
You are finding out how the other half lives
