Intro: GCGCGC
He said, "I'll make your dreams come true in Texas"
GBm7C
And he captured my Appalachian heart
AmD
I was so naive that I believed him
FD
When he promised we'd never be apart
GC
So we packed and pulled a U-Haul down to Dallas
GBm7C ~
A year went by and the baby came along
AmD
Then his old friends and his night life came between us
AmD
Dreams turned into sleepless nights waiting all alone
Chorus:
GDC
And I'm staring out the window through these teardrops
DGCD
Holding on to the only dream that turned out right
EmDC
We're on a Greyhound bound for West Virginia
AmCGCGC
He's in Dallas without us tonight
GC
Oh lord, I hate to break the news to mama
GBm7C ~
She's getting on in years and worries so
AmD
Maybe I should have stayed in Dallas
AmD
Gave him another chance, right now I just don't know
Chorus:
GDC
I'm staring out the window through these teardrops
DGCD
Holding on to the only dream that turned out right
EmDC
We're on a Greyhound bound for West Virginia
AmCGCG
And he's in Dallas without us tonight
C
He said, "I'll make your dreams come true in Texas"
~ AmCGCG
And he's in Dallas without us tonight
