D5                              A5                            B5                              G5 
Close your eyes and dream with me, I'm goin' on a trip through history 
D5            A5                        G5 
I wanna see some sights today 
D5                            A5                                      B5                    G5 
We'll go back when time was young and you learned the trigger of the gun 
D5                  A5                      D5 
Or you'd be six feet on your way 
D5                                              A5                           B5                  G5 
When the mountains closed the valley side and the rivers held the miner's pride 
D5               A5        G5 
It was the year of '49 
D5                                     A5                              B5                          G5 
Well those days are now gone and dead and I wish that I could see the lead 
D5           A5                      D5 
Flying from the cowboy's iron 
 
Chorus: 
D5                 A5      B5                        G5       D5          A5 
I wanna go time travelin' through Texas you and me 
D5              A5      B5                  G5          D5         A5 
I wanna go time travelin' through Texas you and me 
A5          G5   D5         A5              B5      D5              A5       B5 
I wanna be there to breathe the air and see all that I can see 
         G5             D5           A5 
In my Texas time travelin' machine 
 
Well the day goes on, the sun beats down and bakes your skin a golden brown 
now your feelin' like a king 
We'll pull off along side the road and see the land that Jesse owned 
and all the times he spent with me 
Then along the skyline of the trees we'll skinnydip within the stream 
and we'll flash the passin' cars 
Then we'll jump into our Cadillac, the tracks of time will take us back 
Back to the land off so far 
 
Chorus 
 
You got to take a look around and see this land before it drowns 
Underneath the city streets 
Geronimo, he said it best,
