DThere's a girl waiting for me in Austin
She knowA7s I'm coming through today
She's waGiting to see if I'll stop by
Waits to Bmsee what I haA7ve to sayD  
There's Da strong wind blowing in Austin
Strange A7for this time of year
So I wonGder if it's not a message of sorts
SomethinBmg that I should A7hearD  
A messagBme I'm supposed A7to hearD  
My head Dsays keep on blowing
My heart A7says you're out of your mind
Enoughs Genough you're only just so tough
You need Bmto learn to reaA7d the signsD  
Of a roaDd that's going nowhere
Just leaA7ding you around the bend
To where Ganother bend waits again
Just likBme every other A7timeD  
Just likBme every otheA7r timeD  
Instrumental:
As a poeDt and a dreamer
Who partA7-times as a fool
You can'Gt ignore the unexplored
You can'Bmt live with what A7might have beDen
Well, thDere's a might have been in Austin
And thouA7gh it hasn't happened yet
It's morGe a question of when this time

D/F#

There's a girl waiting for me in Austin

She knows I'm coming through today

She's waiting to see if I'll stop by

Bm A7 D

Waits to see what I have to say

There's a strong wind blowing in Austin

Strange for this time of year

So I wonder if it's not a message of sorts

Bm A7 D

Something that I should hear

Bm A7 D

A message I'm supposed to hear

My head says keep on blowing

My heart says you're out of your mind

Enoughs enough you're only just so tough

Bm A7 D

You need to learn to read the signs

Of a road that's going nowhere

Just leading you around the bend

To where another bend waits again

Bm A7 D

Just like every other time

Bm A7 D

Just like every other time

Instrumental:

As a poet and a dreamer

Who part-times as a fool

You can't ignore the unexplored

Bm A7 D

You can't live with what might have been

Well, there's a might have been in Austin

And though it hasn't happened yet

It's more a question of when this time

Bm A7 D

And less a question if

Bm A7 G

Yeah, it's less a question if

Bm A7

Those might have beens and those then agains

G D

Can sure push and pull and can tear you

Bm A7

And hinting winds and those hidden bends

G D

Can sure leave your compass a mess

Bm A7

But if the to and fro ever let you go

G D/F# Em

The shock would surely kill you

So you just move on

A7 D

Cause it's all you've ever known

Instrumental:

There's a might have been in Austin

And though it hasn't happened yet

It's more a question of when this time

Bm A7 D

And less a question if

Bm A7 D

It's less a question if

Bm A7 D G A7 D

It's less a question if
