As recorded by The Black Crowes (From the 2009 Album BEFORE THE FROST...UNTIL THE FREEZE) [Intro] Em D C Bb G N.C. [Verse 1]
N.C.                   Am
Another week in the driver's seat

D         G              Am
With your feet up on the dashboard

D        G             Am
Rain, it kept a steady beat

                          G
As I watched you dream of Houston

                Am
I ain't never going back

D             Am
Yes sir, that's a fact

D      G             Am
As you waved your cowboy hat

                             G
And sang "The Yellow Rose Of Texas"
[Pre-Chorus]
     Bm          Bb
Just trying to make high ground

    D                  G
Has kept us on the run

Bm                  Bb
There's no crime in towing the line

       Am                 Ab
'Cause fortune is smiling on us, baby

    G                       D    
And we're gonna walk in the sun
[Chorus]
Em             Am   D      
I might dream about Houston

G   C                    Bb   G
But Houston don't dream about me

Em               Am  D               G
If I could keep it between the lines

C                   G   N.C.
Who knows what will be?
[Verse 2]
N.C.                        Am
Loose change days and motel nights

D       G              Am
Day old coffee, dollar postcards

D     G           Am
State trooper's flashing lights

      G
As we listen to the thunder

                     Am
As we talk about our past

D     G              Am
So we see our coming future

            G             Am
You tell me you know love can last

                      G
While staring out the window
[Pre-Chorus]
     Bm            Bb7
Just looking for a place to hide

  D                       G
A place to ease our minds

  Bm              Bb7
A place away from yesterday

      A             Bb 
Close to tomorrow, away from the sorrows

   G                     D
Of living other people's time
[Chorus]
Em             Am   D      
I might dream about Houston

G   C                    Bb   G
But Houston don't dream about me

Em               Am  D               G
If I could keep it between the lines

C                   G   
Who knows what will be?
[Bridge]
C                    G
(How long, how long) Till we feel the change?

C                    G
(How long, how long) Will the skies be gray?

C                    G
(How long, how long) Will it be this way?

C                    Em             G
(How long, how long) Will she stay?
[Guitar Solo] Bm Bb A Ab Am Ab G D [Out-Chorus]
Em             Am   D      
I might dream about Houston

G   C                    Bb   G
But Houston don't dream about me

Em               Am  D               G
If I could keep it between the lines

C                   G   
Who knows what will be?

Em             Am   D      
I might dream about Houston

G   C                    Bb   G
But Houston don't dream about me

Em               Am  D               G
If I could keep it between the lines

C              G        
Who knows what

C
Who knows what

                G
Who knows what will be?
