intro

G F#m G Asus4 A D


verse 1
G
I've been on the road now
F#m
for dang near all my life
Em    A             D
i do love to sing a song
G
i can say i've worked hard
F#m
put in my time
Em                  A                   
now it's time to go home
    Bm       A     Em
and catch up on my chores
          Bm       A          Asus4   A
watch the sun set from my porch


chours
        G                 F#m
i'll be somewhere down in texas
          A           D
if you're looking for me
G                F#m
drinking in that great wide open
Em             Asus4 A
soaking up the summer breeze
G               F#m
kickin back and settled in
A           D
with my family
        G                 F#m
i'll be somewhere down in texas
          A           D
if you're looking for me


verse 2

that's where i got started
where i was born and bred
it's a fire inside of me
i couldn't have imagined
this texas highway led
far beyond my wildest dreams
but i'll turn out the lights tonight
and say goodnight but not goodbye


repeat chorus


short instrumental
G F#m Em A


bridge

     Bm      A    Em
i've made so many friends
          Bm       A    Asus4 A
i hope we meet someday again, until then


repeat chorus

Great tab, but instead of playing an F#m I like to play a D/F# - It may just be me, but it sounds like a better fit. Here's the pattern for a D/F# before it's asked for. Numbers represent the corresponding fingers, 1 being the index, and so forth..

cool - actually when i first started tabbin it out that's what i used - a D/F# - but i wasn't sure which chord was actually used so i finally just stuck with the F#m ...

btw - i use my thumb instead of my index finger to play the F# on the low E. it works better for me.

Nice job on the chords. Pretty well spot on. I play bass and sounded great
