D Tuning - Tune a full step down D G C F A D [Intro] F C G G [Verse 1] [tab] G On a winter night in Webb County, Texas Bm On the north bank of the mighty Rio Grande C I was watching the jungle fires a-burnin' G D Across the border of a not-so-distant land G And the echoes of the church bells that were swingin' Bm Could be heard from Guadalupe Market Square C There was a girl down there in the south side of the river G D She had feathers tied into her long black hair
[Chorus]
C And if I was I was White-Crowned Sparrow G D Well, I would float upon the southern skies of blue G G/F# Em C But I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo D G Wishing I was rolling back to you
[Verse 2]
G I put on my favorite jacket for Jamboozie Bm I painted up my eyes and wore my beads C There was a band playing "To God Be the Glory" G D There were people dancing all around the street G There were barrels on the sidewalk that were burning Bm And a fortune-teller readin' people's hands C And I swear I heard those church bells ringing G D 'Cross the border of a not-so-distant land
[Chorus]
C Singin', "If I was I was White-Crowned Sparrow G D Well, I would float upon the southern skies of blue G G/F# Em C But I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo D G Wishing I was rolling back to you" C And if I was I was White-Crowned Sparrow G D Well, I would float upon the southern skies of blue G G/F# Em C But I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo D G Wishing I was rolling back to you
[Outro]
G G/F# Em C I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo D F C G Wishing I was rolling back to you F C G Wish I was rolling back, back to you F C G Wish I was rolling back to you F C G Wish I was rolling back to you
