Wichita Falls
by Houston Marchman
Intro: G
Verse:
[G]Oil field town in a blood red sky
way out he[C]re that sun takes a long time to [G]die
just seventeen when the highway [Em]called
my mama said "[G]boy don't send me no t[D]ears back to Wichita [G]Falls"
Yeah broken white l[G]ine led me away
down a l[C]o-o-o-ng lonesome inters[G]tate
my boots move [G]fast but my mind move s[Em]low
wherever easy [G]money went[D] I was gonna go[G]
Chorus:
Now my poor mama [C]cries for the trouble I'm [G]in
but the law don't believe me it was self def[D]ense
her heart [G]breaks down aga[C]inst these prison [G]walls[C]
there's a few more [G]tears tonight[D] over Wichita [Em]Falls[C]
there's a few more [G]tears tonight[D] over Wichita [G]Falls
Verse:
I was raised [G]up that where God lost his shoes
turned that west Texas [C]dust into big city b[G]lues
that city kid p[G]ushed me just a little too [Em]far
reckon I pushed [G]back [D]just a little too [G]hard
Chorus:
Now my poor mama [C]cries for the trouble I'm [G]in
but the law don't believe me it was self def[D]ense
her heart [G]breaks down ag[C]ainst these prison [G]walls[C]
there's a few more [G]tears tonight[D] over Wichita [G]Falls
Now my poor mama [C]cries for the trouble I'm [G]in
but the law don't believe me mama hell it was self def[D]ense
my life [G]sure don't m[C]ean much 'side these p[G]rison walls[C]
'cept a few more [G]tears tonight[D] over Wichita F[Em]alls[C]
there's a few more [G]tears tonight[D] over Wichita F[G]alls
