Verse 1:
G Cadd9 G
The street light it flickers and quietly remembers
Em7 Cadd9 G
Back to 45 the Friday night sounds
G Cadd9 G
The coyotes are different, they moan in the distance
Em7 Cadd9 G
And their cries cast spells on the town
Cadd9 G
But the boys from the rigs, they had paychecks to show
Em7 Cadd9 G
They made money, they'll spend it like hell
G Cadd9 G
They took their debt, their pain and regrets
Em7 Cadd9 G
And they left them beneath that well

Verse 2:
G Cadd9 G
And Mary, she was restless, she'd heard of East Texas
Em7 Cadd9 G
Of the pines and the roses out there
G Cadd9 G
With the wind in her sails, she cursed Midland to hell
Em7 Cadd9 G
And she ran from all of her cares
Cadd9 G
But the time passed her by like the dreams in her mind
Em7 Cadd9 G
She got a letter from her mother one May
G Cadd9 G
It said the boys of K-L (?), they just broke the shale
Em7 Cadd9 G
To bring heaven to Midland to stay, oh
Chorus:
G Cadd9 G
Oil town, oil town

She's been waitin' but soon she'll be found

Em7 Cadd9 G
She's been waitin' but soon she'll be, soon she'll be found
