 G             Dsus
  Out on these  Texas plains
 G/B                C2
  You can see for a  million lives
 G                Dsus
  And there’s a  thousand exits
 G/B           C2
  Between here  and the state line
 G          Dsus            G/B    C2
  About the  last time that  I saw  you
          G           Dsus
 You said  call me Pandora
 G/B        C2
  Call me A  fool
 G/B                                     C2
  And I’m thinking this view, it could  do you some good
 G/B                       C2
  So drop these scales and  take a look
 
 Chorus:
 
 D                Em7    C2
  There’s forty  acres  and redemption to be found
 D      Em7           C2
  Just along down the  way
 D           Em7             C2
  There is a  place where no  plow blade has turned the ground
 D             Em7           C2
  But you will  turn it over  (hey)
 D                            GDsusG/B
  Cause out here hope remains   
                             C2DsusG
 Cause out here hope remains   
 
 Out here the Texas sky is as big as the sea
 And you’re alone in your room like an island floating free
 Your spirit’s hanging in a bottle on a tree
 You say that you’re the black sheep, I say you’re still family
 So throw that bottle to the waves
 And I’ll bring you into me, and from the shore you will see
 
 Chorus:
 
 Out here the Texas rain is the hardest I’ve ever seen
 It’ll wash your house away, but it’ll also make you clean
 And all these rocks are crying out too
 And this whole land is calling out for you
 
 Chorus:
