Abilene 
? 2003 Taylor Davis & Paul Eason 

Intro: Bm 
Verse: 
F#m                  A 
The stars up here don?t burn as bright 
Em                    Bm 
Nothin seems the same 
F#m                  A 
I wake up to the same old place 
G              A 
It don?t ever change 


F#m                     A 
I can see those night we used to watch  
Em                  Bm 
The fireflies dancin round 
F#m                  A 
If I close my eyes in no time at all 
G                          A 
I?m back in that old town 

Chorus: 
 D/F#                  G       D 
In my heart I?m in Abilene 
D                              Bm 
Where life don?t treat you quite so mean 
Bm              D/F#      G           D 
It?s you and me on a front porch swing 
D                   A 
Watchin the sun go down 
A          D/F#       G       D 
Can?t you feel the summer breeze 
D                  Bm 
Blowin through the grass so green 
Bm                     Gm             A 
Though I?m sittin here in Tennessee 
A                      D 
In my heart I?m in Abilene 

Verse: 
Lately when I talk to you  
I can?t remember why I?m gone 
But it don?t matter anyhow 
I barely notice I?m not home
