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
