As recorded by Flatland Cavalry (2025 release) [Intro] D Bm G A G A D Bm G A G A [Verse 1]
     D
When I look south and see the storm clouds roll

                           Bm
On their way to old Mexico

                  G    A
I don't wanna be alone

        D
And the rays of light through a Shiner Bock bottle

                                                     Bm
Make me wanna turn the key and put down the throttle

        G         A D    A  G A
And get lost down 35
[Verse 2]
       D
When I get tied down by the ties that bind

                                        Bm
Seem like I'm never gonna find the time

             G     A
To do what I need

              D
And that's to find me a place where I can think

                                   Bm
Talk about love, and laugh and drink

            G       A         D       G
And there's someone there who cares
[Chorus]
                            D       G
'Cause no matter how big it storms

                                    A
I know I can find me a place that's warm

           G           A        D
The sun is shinin' somewhere in Texas

   Bm                         G    A
Mm-hm, I hope it's shinin' on her

G         A       D      Bm    G    A  G A
Somewhere down in Texas
[Verse 3]
     D
In a place that big, a man could get lost

                                       Bm
Never mind the time, forget about the cost

        G      A       D
There's more important things
[Verse 4]
D
She's somewhere smilin' north of San Antone

                                              Bm
And I've got her number but I stare at the phone

         G          A    D      G
'Cause I still want to believe
[Chorus]
                          D       G
That no matter how big it storms

                                    A
I know I can find me a place that's warm

           G           A        D
The sun is shinin' somewhere in Texas

   Bm                         G    A
Mm-hm, I hope it's shinin' on her

G         A       D      Bm    G    A  G Bm
Somewhere down in Texas
[Bridge]
             G              D
To hell with horoscopes and empty dreams

Bm                G            D               A     G
To hell with Valentino and his cut-off pair of jeans

                            A
'Cause I know I can make it there

     G   A         Bm       A G
On a 12-pack and a prayer
[Out-Chorus]
                            D       G
'Cause no matter how big it storms

                                    A
I know I can find me a place that's warm

           G           A        D
The sun is shinin' somewhere in Texas

   Bm                         G    A
Mm-hm, I hope it's shinin' on her

G         A       D
Somewhere down in Texas

   Bm                         G    A
Mm-hm, I hope it's shinin' on her

G         A       D  Bm    G    A
Somewhere down in Texas

G         A       D
Somewhere down in Texas
