West Texas Wind chords by Dixie Chicks

Verse: 1
C           Dm
It's a long thin line, it sure is a hot and dusty day
F             C          G
And Colorado is more than eight hundred miles away
C             Dm
I called to tell you that I'd be home sometime tonight
      F              C
If the roads are clear and the weather is right
    G C             Dm
Now to say I miss you is putting it lightly, can't you see
        Fm           C       G
There's nothing better than having you lying next to me
       C             Dm
Early in the morning, honey you're the first thing on my mind
    F         C
Like a rising sun to the travelin' kind

Dm                F
West Texas Wind, tell me why you try to hold me back
       C            G  C
Tuggin' at my heart and pullin' on my sleeve
         Dm              F           C
You and this old guitar, you're always up for pickin' just one more song
        F      C     G     C
And if I listen long enough to you I might never leave


Verse: 2
         C                  Dm
Now the lights of Denver, they're gonna shimmer in the deep red of the dawn
      F       C       G
And I'll be rollin' in, bleary-eyed and hangin' on
         C           Dm
And I'll grab my suitcase and slip it lightly through the door
  F           G     C
And swear again I won't leave him anymore



Dm                F
West Texas Wind, tell me why you try to hold me back
       C            G  C
Tuggin' at my heart and pullin' on my sleeve
         Dm              F           C
You and this old guitar, you're always up for pickin' just one more song
        F      C     G     C
And if I listen long enough to you I might never leave


Outro
         F       C         G
And if I listen long enough to you I might never leave
        F      C     G     C
And if I listen long enough to you I might never leave
