My Kinda Day On Padre 
from the Port A to Port B cd

1st verse
D                           G                    Em 
Winnebagos and airstreams, all headed north in a line
A
friends and relations, on a coastal vacation
D                                   A        D 
well I sure hope they've had a good time 

2nd verse
D
There going back to the race, back to the place
G                                  Em
they'll come down again there's no doubt
A
It's the end of the season, makes a pretty good reason
                         D
for me to be headed down south

chorus
D                                       G
Down to laguna madre, cruisin' over the causway
A
There's nobody here, the coast is all clear
                        D         A   
It's my kinda of day on Padre

3rd verse
D                  G                        Em
7 eleven is empty, there's no t-shirt's for sale
A
the condo's are clearin', they boarded there windows
D                               A
There ready for the winds first gale 

4th verse
D
I guess I'm here because I'm a nautical dreamer
G                                      Em
I ain't gotta a boat, so I'll take the isle
A
Makin' friends with the seagulls, pickin' up sea shells
                        D
not another tourist for miles

Chorus

Solo

5th verse
D
Think I'll see what's shakin' at Port A
G                          Em 
Stop at Shory's, have me a round
A
With one ol'skipper, a few bay shrimpers.
D                                           A
They've been talkin' 'bout the fish they'd found

6th verse
D
Then the old man raises his glass
G                                 Em 
and tremble's as he speaks of the pier
A
Say's, Now there all gone you know, but not to long ago
                               D
remember when the tarpon where here

Chorus
A                       D 
Think I'm gonna stay on Padre
A                      D
It' my kinda of day on Padre
