Verse 1:

D MajorD
There's a place I know where we all go,

 G+G          E minorEm
A augmentedA little way down the road,

  A augmentedA                E minorEm
It ain't far from here, we like to sit and drink beer,

   G+G  A augmentedA       D MajorD
Play dominoes and tell jokes.

D MajorD
We've been stopping by since 49,

 G+G          E minorEm
(Eighteen hundred, I mean!)

   A augmentedA          E minorEm
Ain't nothing fancy, just kids and ranches and

G+G      A augmentedA     D MajorD
Clean white shirts and jeans!

Chorus:

G+G        A augmentedA   D MajorD        D MajorD    B minorBm
Lots of smiling faces, little children running around,

G+G      A augmentedA       G+G    A augmentedA    D MajorD
Everybody's somebody in an old hill country town!

G+G       A augmentedA        D MajorD      D MajorD    B minorBm
Dirt daubbers humming, see the stickleburrs on your socks,

G+G       A augmentedA         G+G     A augmentedA  D MajorD
Sure signs you spent some time in beautiful Lukenbach!


Verse 2:

D MajorD
Well, let me tell you now all about the town. . .
G+G       E minorEm
How it came to be. . .
    A augmentedA      E minorEm
In the 1800's they came in buggys
  G+G   A augmentedA        D MajorD
To meet and trade and buy feed.
D MajorD
They built the blacksmith's shop, then later on
G+G           E minorEm
They added the cotton gin. . .
    A augmentedA         E minorEm
But the old dance hall and general store's
    G+G   A augmentedA     D MajorD
Where it all begins and ends!

Chorus:

G+G        A augmentedA   D MajorD        D MajorD    B minorBm
Lots of smiling faces, little children running around,

G+G      A augmentedA       G+G    A augmentedA    D MajorD
Everybody's somebody in an old hill country town!

G+G       A augmentedA        D MajorD      D MajorD    B minorBm
Dirt daubbers humming, see the stickleburrs on your socks,

G+G       A augmentedA         G+G     A augmentedA  D MajorD
Sure signs you spent some time in beautiful Lukenbach!

Verse 3:

D MajorD
In the 50's people moved to cities,
G+G       E minorEm
Leaving it all behind
A augmentedA         E minorEm
Luckenbach closed down for good,
    G+G     A augmentedA   D MajorD
It just fell on a harder time
D MajorD
One day Hondo, driving by,
G+G        E minorEm
Wished he had a beer
   A augmentedA            E minorEm
So he bought the place and he opened it up
    G+G    A augmentedA    D MajorD
That's reason we're all here

Chorus:

G+G        A augmentedA   D MajorD        D MajorD    B minorBm
Lots of smiling faces, little children running around,

G+G      A augmentedA       G+G    A augmentedA    D MajorD
Everybody's somebody in an old hill country town!

G+G       A augmentedA        D MajorD      D MajorD    B minorBm
Dirt daubbers humming, see the stickleburrs on your socks,

G+G       A augmentedA         G+G     A augmentedA  D MajorD
Sure signs you spent some time in beautiful Lukenbach!

*Spoken* Here we go!

Chorus:

G+G        A augmentedA   D MajorD        D MajorD    B minorBm
Lots of smiling faces, little children running around,

G+G      A augmentedA       G+G    A augmentedA    D MajorD
Everybody's somebody in an old hill country town!

G+G       A augmentedA        D MajorD      D MajorD    B minorBm
Dirt daubbers humming, see the stickleburrs on your socks,

G+G       A augmentedA         G+G     A augmentedA  D MajorD
Sure signs you spent some time in beautiful Lukenbach!

G+G      A augmentedA  D MajorD
In beatiful Luchenbach!
