Song: Town Too Tough To Die 2 Tab
Capo 3
G D C G
I was born in South Central Texas
D G
In a town down along that Coastal Bend
D C G
Where there's miles and miles of milo and cotton
D G
And that warm Matagorda wind
Bm C G
And there's acres and acres of black dirt gumbo
Bm C D
And a town that seemed to fall from the sky
G C G C
Where I was raised, down on the Coastal Plains
G D G
Lives a town too tough to die
G D C G
Well you know it has some history, like most places do
D G
Once sacred to the ones that called it home
D C G
Some came to till the soil, most to drill for oil
D G
That lay waiting down below that salt dome
Bm C G
So they raised the wooden derricks and lowered steel pipe
Bm C D
And they stayed until the last well ran dry
G C G C
Where I was raised, back in the glory days
G D G
Of a town too tough to die
G D C G
And now it seems so different, after all this time
D G
Or maybe it's just me who has changed
D C G
It's the same row of houses, it's that same general store
D G
And that same dead stretch of Main.
Bm C G
It's that same restless feeling, on those same empty streets
Bm C D
Where you and I, we used to ride
G C G C
It was where we spent our days, before we ran away
G D G
D C
And when everything is changed, that memory remains
G D C G
Of a town too tough to die
