Austin’s changed, it’s
G                 D       D
true Show me what hasn’t
            D             G              D     D
Tonight the TV's throwing colors on the wall
           F#m                            G      Em
As watches cities of the world reduced to ashes
             D           A             D      D
From where I sit, at the bottom of the world

Verse 2:
          D
Oh, there used to be a phone booth
G                  D       G2 D
Down here on every corner
   D                  G               D     G2 D
He used to call me up just to say my name
    F#m                       G       Em
But now anybody gets is a busy signal
                D              A             D      D
No I can’t call home, from the bottom of the world

Don’t you think it’s time you delivered
       D                  G           D        G2 D
I said say the word, your wish is my command
    F#m                          G       Em
She ran me over like an eighteen wheeler
              D           A             D      D
and dumped my body at the bottom of the world

        D                        G                D    G2 D
You may think you know all there is to know about me
          D         G               D     G2 D
You might think the beast is in the cage
    F#m                           G        Em
But everything you see is just an illusion
                  D            A             D      D
It’s about to get real, at the bottom of the world

Oh, hey little boy, little boy you look a little frightened
          D                  G                   D      G2 D
For these aren't the kind of streets for walking alone
   F#m                                     G        Em
So why don’t you get yourself back home to Houston
                     D              A             D      D
I don’t think you’re ready, for the bottom of the world
