D
There's a girl waiting for me in Austin
A7
She knows I'm coming through today
G
She's waiting to see if I'll stop by
Bm A7 D
Waits to see what I have to say
D
There's a strong wind blowing in Austin
A7
Strange for this time of year
G
So I wonder if it's not a message of sorts
Bm A7 D
Something that I should hear
Bm A7 D
A message I'm supposed to hear
D
My head says keep on blowing
A7
My heart says you're out of your mind
G
Enoughs enough you're only just so tough
Bm A7 D
You need to learn to read the signs
D
Of a road that's going nowhere
A7
Just leading you around the bend
G
To where another bend waits again
Bm A7 D
Just like every other time
Bm A7 D
Just like every other time
Instrumental:
D
As a poet and a dreamer
A7
Who part-times as a fool
G
You can't ignore the unexplored
Bm A7 D
You can't live with what might have been
D
Well, there's a might have been in Austin
A7
And though it hasn't happened yet
G
It's more a question of when this time
Bm A7 D
And less a question if
Bm A7 G
Yeah, it's less a question if
Bm A7
Those might have beens and those then agains
G D
Can sure push and pull and can tear you
Bm A7
And hinting winds and those hidden bends
G D
Can sure leave your compass a mess
Bm A7
But if the to and fro ever let you go
G D/F# Em
The shock would surely kill you
Bm
So you just move on
A7 D
Cause it's all you've ever known
