Intro: (2x)
[G] Out on these [Dsus] Texas plains
[G/B] You can see for a [C2] million lives
[G] And thereâs a [Dsus] thousand exits
[G/B] Between here [C2] and the state line
[G] About the [Dsus] last time that [G/B] I saw [C2] you
You said [G] call me Pan[Dsus]dora
[] Call me [] fool
[G/B] And Iâm thinking this view, it could [C2] do you some good
[G/B] So drop these scales and [C2] take a look
CHORUS
[D] Thereâs forty [Em7] acres [C2] and redemption to be found
[D] Just a[Em7]long down the [C2] way
[D] There is a [Em7] place where no [C2] plow blade has turned the ground
[D] But you will [Em7] turn it over [C2] (hey)
[D] Cause out here hope remains [G] [Dsus] [G/B]
Cause out here hope remains [C2] [Dsus] [G]
Out here the Texas sky is as big as the sea
And youâre alone in your room like an island floating free
Your spiritâs hanging in a bottle on a tree
You say that youâre the black sheep, I say youâre still family
So throw that bottle to the waves
And Iâll bring you into me, and from the shore you will see
CHORUS
Out here the Texas rain is the hardest Iâve ever seen
Itâll wash your house away, but itâll also make you clean
And all these rocks are crying out too
And this whole land is calling out for you
CHORUS
(Repeat last line twice, end with G)
