Mike Graham - I Miss West Texas guitar chord

I Miss West Texas

Mike Graham

D G

There's a place out in the desert

D A

Where oil flows and tumbleweeds roll

D G

Sunsets they last for hours

D A G

And the moon has a dusty orange glow

D A D

Yeah the moon has a dusty orange glow

I moved away from those flatlands

For a place so lovely and green

Sometimes I feel all locked up inside

In all of the hills and the trees

Yeah in all of the hills and the trees

chorus

D G

I miss West Texas

D A

I miss being able to see for miles

D A G

But I'm stuck up here in Ft. Worth

D A G

And I haven't been west in a while

D A D

No I haven't been west in a while

I miss Friday night football

Where the band plays "Hawaii Five-O"

Sometimes I feel that I'm back in there

And I feel a warm south wind blow

Yes I feel that warm south wind blow

And I'm sure that you wouldn't be just duly impressed

If you hung out there any time

The sky's covered in dust, the rigs now are rust

But somehow it all makes me smile

I said somehow it all makes me smile

repeat chorus

I'm sure you feel the same way about your hometown

It's just something that you can't explain

Maybe because it's familiar

Like that smell in the air 'fore it rains

Yeah that smell in the air 'fore it rains

But the miles between me and my hometown

Made me realize

That it don't really matter where you're living

Home is a state of mind

I said home is a state of mind

repeat chorus
