G          D        Em         G
Suns going down the deserts on fire
    C          Bm           Am
The same way I felt when we touched
D              D7    D          D7
Stars stood at night excess moonlight

Theres no better place for love

I   usually know when the wind blows
C             Bm            Am    (walk up to G )   
Just what the next day will bring
     G          D      D7              D
Then out of the blue a cloud will roll thru
    D7           D             G    (walk up to D)
And thats all it takes to make rain

Chorus 1

    D                      D7         D       G   (walk down to D)    
The best part of Texas  is halfway to L.A. by now
Em        D        
She ain't used to the fast life
    D7                       G
And she don't belong in that town
    C              D
Somewhere down the line 
      G                 C       G           (walk down to D)
Maybe she'll change her mind an turn around
    D             D7       Am         D7      G    (walk down to D)
The best part of Texas  is halfway to L.A. by now

Verse 3

D D7     G          D        Em          G
     Way out on the plains I hear an old train
    C         Bm            Am
The loneliest sound on this earth
    D           D7      D          Am
And here in the dark  I talk to my heart
    D           Am            G     D7
But I ain't the greatest with words
G           D           Em          G
Lord what a night   The worst of my life
C         Bm           Am
Maybe I'm not thinkin' clear  
       D                D7         D
'Cause I watched her go just hours ago
       D7               D             G    Em
But it feels like she's been gone for years
