Intro: GDsusG/BC2 (2x)
GDsus
Out on these Texas plains
G/BC2
You can see for a million lives
GDsus
And there’s a thousand exits
G/BC2
Between here and the state line
GDsusG/BC2
About the last time that I saw you
GDsus
You said call me Pandora
G/BC2
Call me A fool
G/BC2
And I’m thinking this view, it could do you some good
G/BC2
So drop these scales and take a look
Chorus:
DEm7C2
There’s forty acres and redemption to be found
DEm7C2
Just along down the way
DEm7C2
There is a place where no plow blade has turned the ground
DEm7C2
But you will turn it over (hey)
D GDsusG/B
Cause out here hope remains
C2DsusG
Cause out here hope remains
Out here the Texas sky is as big as the sea
And you’re alone in your room like an island floating free
Your spirit’s hanging in a bottle on a tree
You say that you’re the black sheep, I say you’re still family
So throw that bottle to the waves
And I’ll bring you into me, and from the shore you will see
Chorus:
Out here the Texas rain is the hardest I’ve ever seen
It’ll wash your house away, but it’ll also make you clean
And all these rocks are crying out too
And this whole land is calling out for you
