Intro:

G


Verse 1:
G
If you’re heading West on 84
G
You’re in her driveway
G
She’ll greet you with a welcome mat of cotton fields
G
And a wind turbine bouquet
G
Sinking summer sun’s her porch light
G

It’s so bright I look away
G
Mac Davis playing on my stereo
G
Brings a smile to my face
                      F Cadd9
God, I miss this place


Chorus:
G
Take me home where the air is dry
G
And the cotton and the winter wheat grow knee-high
                                                F  Cadd9
I tell ya friend I ain’t seen a prettier sunset sky
G
A little windy, but I don’t mind
G
Little breeze through my hair suits me just fine
                                    F    Cadd9
And ya gotta see them stars burn at night
        D
Feeling low from the road
D
Time to head back home
Cadd9                                G
Nothing like a bit of Lubbock to get me high


Verse 2:
G
She’s quite an artsy lady, she gave birth to rock n’ roll
G
If you asked her where her heart is
G
She’d tell you she’s got country in her soul
G
And you can hear ‘em singing on Broadway
G
Or down in the Depot
G
The ghost of Buddy Holly
          F                     Cadd9
Is still alive and singing this song


Chorus:
G
Take me home where the air is dry
G
And the cotton and the winter wheat grow knee-high
                                                F  Cadd9
I tell ya friend I ain’t seen a prettier sunset sky
G
A little windy, but I don’t mind
G
Little breeze through my hair suits me just fine
                                    F    Cadd9
And ya gotta see them stars burn at night
        D
Feeling low from the road
D
Time to head back home
Cadd9                                G
Nothing like a bit of Lubbock to get me high


Bridge:
Em                            G
Farmers working hard all week breaking their backs
        Em                      G
Sending prayers to an Autumn harvest moon
       Em                             G
And on Saturdays they paint that town scarlet and black
        Em               Cadd9            D
Off the 19th street down where the lights are blue


Guitar Solo:
G      F Cadd9


Chorus:
G
Take me home where the air is dry
G                                             Cadd9
And the cotton and the winter wheat grow knee-high
        G                                         F  Cadd9
Where a boy and a girl with a dream can touch the sky
G
A little windy, but I don’t mind
G
Little breeze through my hair suits me just fine
G
Ya oughta hear them victory bells
                  F        Cadd9
Ringing on a Saturday night
        D
Feeling low from the road
D
Time to head back home
       Cadd9
To the friendliest place I’ve ever known
D                            Cadd9          G
Nothing like a little bit of Lubbock to get me high
