Home to Houston Steve Earle
Home to Houston
Capo on 1st
(Little Intro)
[D-G-D-A-D]
[D]When I pulled out of [G]Basra they [D]all wished me luck
Just like they always [A]did before[D] [A]
With a [D]bulletproof [G]screen on the [D]hood of my truck
And a Bradley on [A]my back [D]door
And I [G]wound her [A]up and [D]shifted her [G]down
And I offered this [A]prayer to my [D]lor[A]d
I said â[D]??God get m[G]e back home t[D]o Houston alive
and I wonâ??t drive [A]a truck a[D]nymoreâ??
[G]Early in the morninâ?? and Iâ??m rollinâ?? fast
Haulinâ?? nine thousand gallons of high test gas
Sergeant on the radio hollerinâ?? at me
[E]Look out up ahead here come a [A]R.P.G.
[D]If I ever [G]get home to [D]Houston alive
Then I wonâ??t drive [A]a truck a[D]nymore
(Just repeat the above chord changes for the rest of the song)
Iâ??ve driven the big rigs for all of my life
And my radio handleâ??s â??Trainâ??
Down steep mountain roads on the darkest of nights
I had ice water in my veins
And I come over here â??cause I just didnâ??t care
Now Iâ??m older and wiser by far
If I ever get home to Houston alive
Then I wonâ??t drive a truck anymore
[G]Great God Aâ??mighty what was wrong with me
I know the moneyâ??s good but buddy canâ??t you see
You canâ??t take it with you and that ainâ??t no lie
[E]I donâ??t wanna let â??em get me Iâ??[A]m too young to die
[D]If I ever [G]get home to [D]Houston alive
Then I wonâ??t drive [A]a truck a[D]nymore
