Capo 1

    E                  B7                      E  
The only two things in life that make it worth livin'
   A                        B7            E      
Is guitars to tune good and firm, feelin' women
A                                   E
I don't need my name in the marquee lights
  A                 B7                E
I got my song and I got you with me tonight
A                      B7                    E
Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love


Chorus 1:
            E                                               A
Let's go to Luckenbach Texas with Waylon and Willie and the Boys
     B7                                                                 E
This successful life we're livin' got us feudin' like the Hatfields and McCoys
E                                    E7
Between Hank Williams pain songs and Newbury's train songs
    A                       F#m 
And Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain
B7                                              E 
Out in Luckenbach Texas ain't nobody feelin' no pain


Steel

   E                                   A                  B7              E 
So baby let's sell your diamond rings, buy some boots and faded jeans and go away
     E                              A              B7        E 
This coat and tie is chokin' me and in your high society you cry all day
E                                      E7 
We've been so busy keepin' up with the Jones'
A                         F#m 
Four car garage and we're still buildin' on
A                      B7                    E
Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love

Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas with Willie and Waylon and the Boys
This succesful life we're livin' got us feudin' like the Hatfields and McCoys
