Start Jamming...
Right in the [F#m] middle of a ten cent [G#] scenery
[G#m] Shuffled and stacked [A] on a postcard [E] rack
A cute little [F#] kid on a Shetland [G#m] pony
Smiles at [A] me, I can't smile [F#] back
Cactus [B] Jack drinks coffee black
[F#] Tells me [B] it's my lucky day
[A] Five o'clock in the Texas morning
I come a long, [E] long way
[A] Five o'clock in the Texas morning
I come a long, [E] long way
Well, she left me cold [F#] on a winter's morning
[G#] Coldest it's been [A] for the longest time
[E] She told me Texas [F#m] was where she was [G#m] going
I come a looking, [A] she's hard to find
[F#] Cactus Jack [B] drinks coffee black
[F#] Tells me it's [B] my lucky day
[A] Five o'clock in the Texas morning
I come a long, [E] long way
[A] Five o'clock in the Texas morning
I come a long, [E] long way
[A] I don't know [C#m] just where I'm [F#] going
But there's a soldier [A] with a suitcase over
[D] She just said [C] she was going to Texas [A] now
For a little [E] while
[A] I'm looking for the girl [C#m] with light brown hair
[F#m]
Hazel eyes, [A] she's not too pretty
[D] But a beautiful smile
[Am] She just said [A] she was going to Texas
[E] For a little while
[F#]
[B] [C#] [F#]
[B] [E] Well, the cook in the back [F#] is getting mighty [G#m] curious
He asks the [A] waitress where I'm [E] from
She just says, [F#m] hell, I ain't never seen him
[G#m]
Probably just [A] a California bum
[F#]
Cactus Jack, [B] he says, that's right
[F#] As I walk out [B] into the night
[A] Five o'clock in the Texas morning
I come a long, [E] long way
[A] Five o'clock in the Texas morning
I come a long, [E] long way
Outside, the [A] sun is up
And the [E] wind blows [A] me like a paper cup
[D#] [E] Down the highway
[Em]
