Capo 2
[Intro]
D
[Verse]
I Dguess it finally rained,
it's Adown to 85.
  GI'll bet the fish are bitin',
Down Dby the riversideA.
It's the Donly place made colder
Around Ahere in the middle of June
By the Gendless string of strangers
Brought bAy the summer Dmoon.
[Verse]
My Dbrother moved off to Houston
And Amost my friends stay gone.
  GI need to pay my taxes,
I don't Dlike to mow my lawnA.
I Dhave a harmless habit,
of bein' Afine wherever I am,
But the Gway this water's risin'
I need to Aget up above the damD.
[Chorus]
ToGnight I'm rollin' up north
Back to Dwhere I Apaid the Bmdue,
ToAnight the answer's Austin
For the Comal County DBlue.
[Interlude]
A D
[Verse]
There's Done roll in my ashtray,
I'm Atakin' Hunter Road
  GOut by Riley's Tavern
Where my Dliquor loved to Aflow.
We'll Dskip around San Marcos,
Then Astop and tell Doug hello.
  GSecond gear up congress,
You know I Alike to take it Dslow.
[Chorus]
ToGnight I'm rollin' up north
Back to Dwhere I Apaid the Bmdue,
ToAnight the answer's Austin
For the Comal County DBlue.
[Solo]
G D A Bm A D
[Verse]
The Done right beside me
Helped me Amake it throught that town.
  GWe moved out to the country,
Then we Dbought a wedding gAown
But Dwe still know our ways,
We Alearned those lessons well.
GBack around the turn of the century,
From a Aone room roadside Dcell.
[Chorus]
Yeah, toGnight I'm rollin' up north
Back to Dwhere I Apaid the Bmdue,
ToAnight the answer's Austin
For the Comal County DBlue.
Oh, toGnight I'm rollin' up north
Back to Dwhere I Apaid the Bmdue,
Sometimes the Aonly answer's Austin
For the Comal County DBlue.

Comal County Blue

by Jason Boland and the Stragglers

Capo 2

[Intro]

[Verse]

I guess it finally rained,

it's down to 85.

I'll bet the fish are bitin',

D A

Down by the riverside.

It's the only place made colder

Around here in the middle of June

By the endless string of strangers

A D

Brought by the summer moon.

[Verse]

My brother moved off to Houston

And most my friends stay gone.

I need to pay my taxes,

D A

I don't like to mow my lawn.

I have a harmless habit,

of bein' fine wherever I am,

But the way this water's risin'

A D

I need to get up above the dam.

[Chorus]

Tonight I'm rollin' up north

D A Bm

Back to where I paid the due,

Tonight the answer's Austin

For the Comal County Blue.

[Interlude]

A D

[Verse]

There's one roll in my ashtray,

I'm takin' Hunter Road

Out by Riley's Tavern

D A

Where my liquor loved to flow.

We'll skip around San Marcos,

Then stop and tell Doug hello.

Second gear up congress,

A D

You know I like to take it slow.

[Chorus]

Tonight I'm rollin' up north

D A Bm

Back to where I paid the due,

Tonight the answer's Austin

For the Comal County Blue.

[Solo]

G D A Bm A D

[Verse]

The one right beside me

Helped me make it throught that town.

We moved out to the country,

D A

Then we bought a wedding gown

But we still know our ways,

We learned those lessons well.

Back around the turn of the century,

A D

From a one room roadside cell.

[Chorus]

Yeah, tonight I'm rollin' up north

D A Bm

Back to where I paid the due,

Tonight the answer's Austin

For the Comal County Blue.

Oh, tonight I'm rollin' up north

D A Bm

Back to where I paid the due,

Sometimes the only answer's Austin

For the Comal County Blue.

[Outro]

A D
