D              C          G
Well I was singing at the ol’ Broken Spoke
              Em        C            D
 I could have swore she came walking in
            D          C           G
 Forgot the words to a song that I wrote
          Em        C          D
I Must be losing my mind once again

      D          C               G
 Her daddy is a southern Baptist preacher
            Em               C           D
 I had to choose her or the bars where I sang
             D               C             G
 Now when I call you know I can’t seem to reach her
            Em          C             D
 I’m gonna find her if it’s the last thing


 Chorus:
         C     Em        D
 So I’ll drive all night long
        C    Em            D
 Till I find where we went wrong
             C  Em      D
 But there’s no love in sight
            D   C          G
 Just those lonely Lubbock lights

         D       C          G
 I was ready to give up the road
    Em       C        D
 As I turned onto her street
             D          C            G
 Awe But the silhouette there in her window
        Em          C                D
 Was of someone who once looked like me
     D               C        G
 Awe well I placed a price on her heart
         Em      C          D
 someone else collected the bounty
          D               C             G
 Now this lost soul don’t know where to start
             Em         C              D
 I think I’m lost somewhere in Hale County

 Chorus

       D         C          G
 That west Texas wind grew colder
       Em         C        D
 As I left her a further behind me
        D              C          G
 Sometimes I stop and cry on the shoulder
              Em         C           D
 Cause every town I pass helps to remind me
