James uses drop D tuning on this which means your G chord is
G – 5X0003
Or
D/F# - 2X0232 use thumb to get to the 6th string with regular tuning
D D/F# G D
Every night, Texas skies, yeah, they’ll make you sing
D D/F# A
There’s many nights I’ve looked to you and wondered what the night would bring
D D/F# G D
Could tonight be the night that man will walk through the door
D D/F# A D
And tell me Son, pack it up, you’re done, you won’t play here anymore
Hill country nights, blue collar days, you take the good with the bad
And I wouldn’t trade one of them nights for all the fun we’ve had
Where barstools would turn into thrones, they made you feel like a king
Seiing all them people smile when you started to sing
Chorus:
D D/F# G D
I’d recognize navy skies over the trees so green
D D?F# A
And how you’d feel right at home in a cool hill country breeze
D D/F# G D
A Texas sky filled with stars, yeah Lord I seen ‘em all
D D/F# A D
And Lord I hope and pray I’ll shine and never fall
My body’s beginning to show them years of wear and tear
But I never thought I’d live so long to see you standing there
Side by side, night after night, we gave her one helluva ride
I don’t need any damn award to validate my pride
Chorus
