West Texas Heaven by Kimmie Rhodes (from the album of the
same name)
C Am F
I left west texas heaven it was the only one I've ever
C
known,
C Am F
I've been on the road down here driving with my blinders
C
on
F G Am
And all life was to me is like a truck-stop where you
F
want to stay
F G Am
I never really saw it when you built your dream right in
F
my way
F G C
No I just passed on through like a lonely town
Playing in my head I heard this music like a radio,
In another town somebody turned on somewhere down the
road
And everywhere I turned I tuned in something that you had
to say,
Your signal never cleared I guess it matters that you're
so far away
And I just passed on through like a lonely town
Guitar interlude - F,G,Am,F F,G,Am,F F,G,C
I left west texas heaven oh I guess I'm never going back
that way,
Did your love get lost oh baby did your love just get
misplaced,
Everywhere I go oh the ghost of you just follows me
And everywhere I go I hear you whisper down my empty
streets
And everywhere I go looks like a lonely town
F G C
Everywhere I go looks like a lonely town
F G C
Everywhere I go looks like a lonely town
F, G, Am
