Grand Prairie Tx Homesick Blues Acordes

	  



Intro: D 


Grand Prairie, Texas, home on the range 

I come here for salvation but I'm just another stranger  
     G 
On a strip highway  
             D 
Where nobody stops or stays 
A 
Hell-bent on revival, looking to grow some roots 
       G 
I have mortgaged my survival with these worn out cowboy boots 
            D 
But there's just one horse in forty miles  
                                     G 
And he's the prize possession of the Dallas zoo 
                    D 
And he feels like a stranger, too  


    D 
Old Silver, take me riding through the foothills of my life 

I went easy in the saddle with a lever-action rifle  
      G 
And a tin canteen  
          D 
Through a field of dreams 
A 
Way out by the Beltline where the armadillos play 
         G 
With the noble bootjack rabbit in the evening of the day 
   D 
Oh where my brothers have you gone  
                                  G 
For I return to thank you for the gifts you gave 
        D 
But the field is paved  


Instrumental: G  D       A  G       D 


D 
These nights I work the graveyard at the Burger King downtown 

I get off in the morning and I lay my wages down  
          G 
At the convenience store  
               D 
Where stood my old front door 
    A 
St. Peter when you call me, you can find me waiting here 
  G 
Beneath this sad mimosa tree with a quart of drive-thru beer 
    D 
For home is in the heartland, but the heartland cannot save you  
         G 
When the heart is gone 
    D 
And home's moved on
