North Side Blues
Words and music by Matt Hillyer and Steve Berg
[Verse]
GTravelin round the Lone Star state yAou sure can have a ball,
DStayin out way too late. Feels Glike we've seen Dit all,
GFrom Corpus up to Amarillo Aeverybody's heard the news,
DWatch out San Antonio can give you the north Gside blues.
[Verse]
GAll the nights and miles and memories theAy feel like one big
And you Gjust don't know what Dto expect when things ain't what they seem,
GJust when you think that you're ahead and yoAu finally paid your dues,
DThen you wake up the next morning with a case of the noGrth side blues  
[Chorus]
CSan Antone! San AnCtone!,
GWhy don't you leave me alone,
GYou know I've always Aloved ya,
DYou make me feel at home
GBut you took all those things from me now
Some tAhings I hate to lose,
Every Dtime I go back to you now,
DYou give me the north sidGe blues,
[Verse]
GWell we grooved on to El Paso way and aAcross to Austin too,
DAnd travelin down the river walk is a reGal fun Dthing to do,
GBut be careful not to lose yourself aAnd listen to my clues,
DOr you'll wind up just like me. Singin the nortGh side blues,
[Chorus]
CSan Antone! San AnCtone!,
GWhy don't you leave me alone,
GYou know I've always Aloved ya,
DYou make me feel at home
GBut you took all those things from me now
Some tAhings I hate to lose,
Every Dtime I go back to you now,
DYou give me the north sidGe blues,
