[Intro] D D A7 D [Verse 1]
   D              Dsus4          D
In Fort Worth the neon's shinin' bright

       A7              D
Pretty lights, red and blue

        D                 Dsus4         D
They've shut down all the honky tonks tonight

                A7               D
Say a prayer or two if they only knew

  D               Dsus4            D
I used to say the highway was your home

            A7              D
But we both know that ain't true

     D             Dsus4           D
It's just the only place a man can go

              A7                        D
When he don't know where he's travelin' to

G                           D
Colorado's always clean and healing

G                                  D
Tennessee, the spring is green and cool

       D             Dsus4           D
But it never really was your kind of town

              A7                       D
So you went around with the Fort Worth Blues
[Break] D D A7 D [Verse 2]
D              Dsus4             D
Somewhere out across the great divide

                 A7                      D
Where the sky is wide and the clouds are few

  D               Dsus4            D
A man can see his way clear to the light

             A7                          D
Just hold on tight, that's all you gotta do

     G                                 D
They say in Texas the weather's always changin'

G                                        D
One thing change will bring is somethin' new

D              Dsus4           D
Houston really ain't too bad a town

              A7                       D
So you hung around with the Fort Worth Blues
[Break] D D A7 D D D A7 D [Verse 3]
          D              Dsus4        D
There's a full moon over Galway Bay tonight

       A7                 D
Silver light on green and blue

    D             Dsus4       D
And every place I travel to I find

             A7                    D
Some kind of sign that you've been through

    G                            D
Now Amsterdam is always good for grieving

G                               D
London never fails to leave me blue

    D            Dsus4            D
Oh, Paris really ain't my kind of town

              A7                       D
So I walked around with the Fort Worth Blues
