[Intro]

[Verse 1]

It's just the luck of the draw

the dust in fields bringing pain

the drive that takes me all night

to drag you back home again

I'm getting high in the kitchen

A G Bm Bsus2 Bm

waiting to pull out of town

now you're half way across Texas

A Asus2 A

and I'm coming down.

[Verse 2]

The last time we were together

is a time I live to forget

but my memory of the moonlight

that was shining on your breast

keeps my drunk hands steady

A G Bm Bsus2 Bm

and the wheels keep going round

now you're half way across Texas

A Asus2 A

and I'm coming down

[Chorus]

Are you hiding in the parking lots

where we've been before

while I'm out in the darkness

still trying to score

Just how many years now

A G Bm Bsus2 Bm

since you've been around

are you half way across Texas

A Asus2 A

cause I'm coming down

[Break]

E A

[Verse 3]

I'm nowhere close to Lubbock

but Buddy Holly's in my head

and your holed up in a Motel Six

giving a stranger head

He'll be gone by breakfast

A G Bm Bsus2 Bm

I won't remember my last round

are you half way across Texas

A Asus2 A

and I'm coming down

[Outro]

Oh, are you half way across Texas

A Asus2 A

and I'm coming down

E A Asus2 A
