[Verse]
A
The only two things in life that make it worth livin'
A
Are guitars tuned good, and fine feelin' women
A
I don't need my name in the marquee lights
A
Got a little song we're gonna sing for you tonight so let's go
[Chorus 1]
A A7 D
Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas with Waylon and Willie and the boys
E
This successful life we're livin'
A
Got us feudin' like the Hatfields and McCoys
A A7
Between them Hank Williams pain songs and Newbury's train songs
D A Bm
And blue eyes cryin' in the rain
E A
Out in Luckenbach, Texas ain't nobody feelin' no pain
A
So baby let's sell your diamond ring
Bm E A
Buy some boots and faded jeans and go away
A
This coat and tie is chokin' me
Bm E A
In your high society you cry all day
A7
We've been so busy keepin' up with the Jones
D Bm
Four-car garage and we're still buildin' on
D (opt w/d) A E A
Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love
[Chorus 2]
A A7 D
Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas with Waylon and Willie and the boys
E
This successful life we're livin'
A
Got us feudin' like the Hatfields and McCoys
A A7
Between them Hank Williams pain songs and Jerry Jeff train songs
D A Bm
And blue eyes cryin' in the rain
E A
Oh Luckenbach, Texas ain't nobody feelin' no pain
[Instrumental]
A D E A
[Outro]
E A
Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas ain't nobody feelin' no pain
A
No pain, no pain....
