Forth Worth Blues chords by Steve Earle

Chords with lyrics

C majorC           FF       C majorC
In Fort Worth all the neon's shinin bright
    G7G7       C majorC
Pretty lights red and blue
             FF      C majorC
They'd shut down all the honky tonks tonight
        G7G7        C majorC
Say a prayer or two if they only knew


C majorC          FF        C majorC
You used to say the highway was your home
      G7G7       C majorC
But we both know that ain't true
          FF        C majorC
It's just the only place a man can go
       G7G7            C majorC
When he don't know where he's travelin' to

FF       G+G        C majorC
But Colorado's always clean and healing
FF      G+G          C majorC
Tennessee in Spring is green and cool
        FF        C majorC
It never really was your kind of town
      G7G7             C majorC
So you went around with the Fort Worth Blues


C majorC       FF         C majorC
Somewhere out across the great divide
         G7G7           C majorC
Where the sky is wide and the clouds are few
         FF        C majorC
A augmentedA man can see his way clear to the light
       G7G7            C majorC
Just hold on tight that's all you gotta do


FF         G+G        C majorC
And they say Texas weather's always changin'
FF            G+G         C majorC
And one thing change'll bring is somethin' new
          FF        C majorC
And Houston really ain't too bad a town
      G7G7             C majorC
So you hung around with the Fort Worth Blues

SOLO

C majorC            FF     C majorC
There's a full moon over Galway Bay tonight
    G7G7          C majorC
Silver light over green and blue
         FF     C majorC
And every place I travel to find
        G7G7          C majorC
Some kind of a sign that you've been through


FF         G+G        C majorC
But Amsterdam was always good for grieving
         FF        C majorC
And London never fails to leave me blue
       FF        C majorC
Paris really ain't my kind of town
      G7G7             C majorC
So I walked around with the Fort Worth Blues
