[Verse 1]
G
I took a tour to Texas and from Waco I called you
G
But day by day no answer and I'm big Bluebonnet blue
    C
I'm singing and they're dancing but I'm feeling Big D bad
G                           D          G
I'm Sweetwater beat And I'm Texas City sad
[Chorus]
    C
The rhythm keeps me living
    C                  G
But have you heard the news
          G
There's a sad song singer coming
         D          G
With the rockabilly blues
[Verse 2]
G
It's hard to keep on singing when you're lonesome to the bone
G
10,000 happy people but I'm San Antone alone
    C
One night stands and the man demands that I get up and go
G                        D          G
I'm Odessa desperate and San Angelo low
[Chorus]
    C
The rhythm keeps me living
    C                  G
But have you heard the news
          G
There's a sad song singer coming
         D          G
With the rockabilly blues
[Verse 3]
G
It's the same old tune in Temple about the loving I ain't had
G
I'm getting Beaumont bitter and Amarillo mad
     C
I'm giving up on calling you 'cause you're evading me
G                                   D            G
I'm coming home and if you're gone, I'm gonna be Tennessee free
[Chorus]
    C
The rhythm keeps me living
    C                  G
But have you heard the news
          G
There's a sad song singer coming
         D          G
With the rockabilly blues
